This paper provides an assessment of the impact of collaboration and smoothing
replenishment rules on supply chain operational performance and customer service level …

There are established archetypes that demonstrate the dynamic properties of make-to-
order/stock and assemble-to-order production planning and inventory control systems and …

The aim of this paper is to analyse the operational response of a Synchronised Supply
Chain (SSC). To do so, first a new mathematical model of a SSC is presented. An exhaustive …

Supply chain management (SCM) is concerned with the efficient movement of goods
through a network of suppliers and retailers. As delayed and uncertain dynamical systems …

The efficient use of the production-inventory control system is of great importance in the
industry. In this paper, an investigation study of the impact of an optimal Integral minus …

The amplification of demand variation in a supply chain network (SCN) is a well-known
phenomenon called the bullwhip effect, which creates inefficiencies due to high variation in …

Managing order pipeline inventory is important for controlling unwanted system dynamics,
especially the bullwhip effect. We analytically explore the impact of desired target order …

In this article, a new optimal model-based sliding mode controller is proposed and applied to
a perishable inventory system. The sliding variable of the real plant is forced to follow the …

Even in a deterministic setting, nonlinearities can yield unexpected dynamic behaviours in a
production and inventory control system, such as sustained oscillations or limit cycles …

This paper deals with the inventory control in supply chains under the following
assumptions:(1) perishable goods with uncertain deteriorating factor,(2) a future uncertain …
