The measurement of complexity is a metric that can be used as a restructuring parameter in
a production system, and it is also useful for the analysis of improvements based on the …

The robustness of supply chains, ie their ability to cope with external and internal disruptions
and disturbances, is of vital importance. The complicated interrelationships of supply chains' …

Purpose Easily employable quantitative supply chain complexity (SCC) measures
considering the significant dimensions of complexity as well as the drivers that represent …

Characterising existing approaches to operational complexity, it can be stated that for those
metrics are characterful different factors used as variables such as product structure …

A key decision in design of a supply chain is the configuration of the network. In this study,
supply chain network design problem is investigated and an efficient solution approach is …

Assembly supply chain systems are becoming increasingly complex and, as a result, there is
more and more need to design and manage them in a way that benefits the producers and …

In the past period the efficiency aspects of production were emphasized, sometimes even
overemphasized. As a result, the vulnerability of production structures was put in the …

The reopening of business systems caused by the effects of the pandemic has forced
decision-makers to look for quick and efficient mechanisms to achieve adequate levels of …

This paper demonstrates that a distributed control and planning system can fulfil an
idealised mixed-model assembly problem and compete with traditional systems. The …

Complexity of assembly supply chains (ASCs) is a challenge for designers and managers,
especially when ASC systems become increasingly complex due to technological …
