Today's customer demands in supply chains tend to change quickly, variously even in a short time Interval. The uncertainties of customer demands make it difficult for supply chains to achieve efficient inventory replenishment, resulting in loosing sales opportunity or keeping excessive chain wide inventories. Un this paper, we propose an adaptive vendor managed inventory (VMI) model for a two-echelon supply chain with non-stationary customer demands using the action-reward learning method. The Purpose of this model is to decrease the inventory cost adaptively. The control Parameter, a compensation factor, is designed to adaptively change as customer demand pattern changes. A simulation-based experiment was performed to compare the performance of the adaptive VMI model.

In this paper, we suggest a new backorder policy for stockout which is occurred in each regional distribution centers of distribution chain for capital-goods product. In backorder process of backorder policy, minimize expected stockout through the balancing-division module, and has occured stockout is backordering through the emergency supply from central distribution center and regional distribution center. Simulation tests show that our backorder policy is on the decrease of backorder cost and improvement of customer service. Our backorder policy has two important benefit. First, customer service level is improved by realization of minimum stockout. Second, the backorder process by allowance of the same level supply is to decrease system operating cost.

In multi-location inventory systems, lost sales due to stockout decreases not only retailers' profit but also whole supply chain's profit. Transshipment between retailers has been considered to be a major solution to the stockout problem, and many supply chains implement transshipment coalition among retailers. However, in practical situations, retailers occasionally refuses to accept the transshipment requests, mainly because they concern the future stockout possibilities of their own. Thus, the objective of this research is to analyze the effect of retailers' interaction under the transshipment coalition environment based on the simulations, and to provide effective policies to promote retailers' transshipment cooperation. Policies using penalty and incentive scheme are proposed, and it is shown that using proposed policies both the retailers' and the headquarter's profit can be increased.

In this paper, we present a distribution planning method for a supply chain. Like a typical distribution network of manufacturing firms, we have the form of arborescence. To consider more realistic situation, we investigated that an outside supplier has limited capacity. The customer demands are given in deterministic form in finite number of discrete time periods. In this environment, we attempt to minimize the total costs, which is the sum of inventory holding and backorder costs over the distribution network during the planning horizon. To make the best of the restricted capacity, we propose the look-ahead feature. For looking ahead, we convert this problem into a single machine scheduling problem and utilize tabu search approach to solve it. Numerous simulation tests have shown that the proposed algorithm performs quite well.

Information sharing is key to effective supply chain management. In reality, however, it is impossible to get perfect information. Accordingly, only uncertain information can be accessed in business environment, and thus it is important to deal with the uncertainties of information in managing supply chains. This study adopts meteorological forecast as a typical uncertain information. The meteorological events may affect the demands for various weather-sensitive goods, such as beer, ices, clothes, electricity etc. In this study, a beer distribution game is modified by introducing meterological forecast information provided in a probabilistic format. The behavior patterns of the modified beer supply chains are investigated. for two conditions using the weather forecast with or without an information sharing. A value score is introduced to generalize the well-known performance measures employed in the study of supply chains, i.e.. inventory, backlog, and deviation of orders. The simulation result showed that meterological forecast information used in an information sharing environment was more effective than without information sharing, which emphasizes the synergy of uncertain information added to the information sharing environment.

Supply chain management (SCM) is an area that has recently received a great deal of attention in the business community. While SCM is relatively new, the idea of coordinated planning is not. During the last decades, many researchers have investigated multi-stage inventory problems. However, only a few papers address the problem of cost-optimal coordination of multi-stage inventory control with respect to service measures. Even published approaches have a shortcoming in dealing with a delivery lead time consisted of a shipping time and a waiting time. Assumed that there is no waiting time, or that the delivery lead time is implicitly compounded of a shipping time and a waiting time, the problem is often simplified into a multi-stage buffer allocation and a single-stage stochastic buffer sizing problem at all installations. This paper presents a simulation-based heuristic algorithm and a comparison with others for the problem that cannot be decomposed into a multi-stage buffer allocation and a single-stage stochastic buffer sizing problem because the waiting time ties together all stages. The comparison shows that the simulation-based heuristic algorithm performs better than other approaches in saving average inventory cost for both Poisson and Normal demands.

본 연구에서는 스무딩된 주문정책이 리드타임, 만족율, 재고비용에 미치는 영향을 연구한다. 이를 위해 스무딩된 order up to 주문정책을 사용하는 하류업체와 make to order 방식을 사용하는 상류업체로 구성된 공급사슬을 사용한다. 스무딩을 하면 리드타임이 예상하는 바와 같이 감소된다. 그러나 스무딩에 의해 하류업체에서의 만족율이 감소하며 재고비용이 증가된다. 한편 상류업체 제조시간의 분산이 평균 제조시간보다 만족율 및 재고비용에 미치는 영향이 더 크므로, 상류업체 제조시간의 변동성을 최소화해야 한다.

파리 기후 협약 이후 온실 가스 감축은 전세계적으로 가장 중요한 문제이다. 특히 상당한 온실 가스를 배출하는 교통 운송 부문의 화석 연료 감축이 시급하다. 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 대안으로 재생에너지원에서 생산된 전기 에너지로 수소를 생산하여 수소 자동차에 연료로 공급하는 그린 모빌리티 에너지 시스템의 경제성을 검토하였다. 시스템 설계에 필요한 재생에너지 발전, 수전해 통한 수소 생산, 수소 저장과 충전소 등 여러가지 결정사항들에 대해 9 가지 시나리오를 구성하여 그에 대한 최적 설계 및 운영 비용을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 경험은 현실적 수소 에너지 시스템을 구축하는데 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
