It used a single period newsvendor model to analyze the decision of supplied and buyers to do or not do business online. The results suggest that lack of Incentive is the key factor of B2B electronic markets failure. At the same time, it designed a revenue sharing contract to coordinate the E-supply chain in order to prevent failure of E-market.展开更多

The total cost of closed-loop supply chain was selected as fitness function, and a unique and tidy coding mode was adopted in the proposed algorithm. Then, some mutation and crossover operators were introduced to achieve discrete optimization of RCSCN structure. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can gain global optimal solution with good convergent performance and rapidity. The computing speed is only 22.16 s, which is shorter than those of the other optimization algorithms.展开更多

In this paper, a new quantitative method is put forward to accomplish the task of total assessment on the Microeconomic level which analyses all of the quantitative and qualitative factors with regard to the supplier selection. A Microsoft Excel based new application kit named TOCO Total Assessment Tool is introduced. It can calculate the direct cost and the indirect cost conveniently and can help to evaluate the performance of candidate suppliers. To use the tool, the first module called Total Cost Analysis Module is introduced to calculate the total cost of supplier selection, and then the second module named Supplier Evaluation Module is used to evaluate the performance of each supplier. Finally, the results from these two modules are transferred to the Final Comparison Module to get the final decision-making results. In this paper, the supplier selection related factors are discussed; the method of using the tool is illustrated in detail. It is shown that scientific usage of the TOCO Total Assessment Tool can make the decision-making processes of supplier selection in international procurement transparent, easily calculated, and objective. At the end, a practical case is given to clarify the procedure of using the tool.展开更多

The suppliers disassemble the service requests of consumers into the sub-requests. Then suppliers respond the sub-requests cooperatively. Thus the Service Supply Chain (SSC) can be formed. But the existing bottom-up and up-bottom supply chain formation fashions cannot be adapted to the SSC in distributed environment of E-Commerce. Task Dependency Network is exploited to illustrate the service relationship among consumers and suppliers. The formation of SSC with some simulations is elaborated. Then the influence on the formation of SSC caused by the type of service suppliers, the quantities of MA and its variety in number is elucidated.展开更多

Therefore, it is particularly important to study the development of clear direction of supply chain. However, the supply chain is composed of different interest subjects, each subject in order to achieve the maximization of their own interests and adopt different measures, is a complex, huge system, has brought the huge challenge to the supply chain management. In this paper, the research on Supply Chain Management in the current situation, characteristics and the modem supply chain management are summarized, and combined with new challenges of supply chain management to predict future research direction is the development of supply chain management, in order to make the supply chain management to the greatest extent satisfy the consumer e-commerce mode increasingly popular.展开更多

FCM can be a useful tool in a group decision-making environment by using scientifically integrated expert knowledge. The theories of FCM and balance scorecard (BSC) both emphasize cause-and-effect relationships among indicators in a complex system, but few reports have been published addressing the combined application of these two techniques. In this paper we propose a FCM simulation model for the sample performance measurement system of Intemet-based supply chain, which is constructed by BSC theory. We gave examples to explain how FCM can be adapted to execute the causal mechanism of BSC, and also how FCM can support group decision-making and forecasting in performance measurement.展开更多

The application of Intemet of things make its and related enterprises in the supply chain synchronization integration in the process, timely access to relevant information, understand the real needs of the market, the effective control of each link of the supply chain inventory quantity and effectively reduce the supply chain inventory and capital takes up between cooperative enterprises. Thus, in effectively improve the efficiency of the original system at the same time also save the cost of the supply chain management. With the combination of the RFID technique, we finalize the implementation of the logistics information and automation, automatic identification and inspection of finished goods inspection, greatly reduce the human capital, simplify the acceptance of goods and reduce the cost of handling times and human factors caused losses. In the final part, we conclude the work and propose our prospect.展开更多
