Optimal design of the auto parts supply chain for JIT operations: Sequential bifurcation factor screening and multi-response surface methodology
Shi, Wen; Shang, Jennifer; Liu, Zhixue; Zuo, Xiaolu - In: European Journal of Operational Research 236 (2014) 2, pp. 664-676
This research proposes a solution framework based on discrete-event simulation, sequential bifurcation (SB) and … simulation as a platform to model the physical flow of the auto parts operations. We then apply the SB to identify the most …

What Actually Happened to the Inventories of American Companies Between 1981 and 2000?
Chen, Hong; Frank, Murray Z.; Wu, Owen Q. - In: Management Science 51 (2005) 7, pp. 1015-1031
This paper examines the inventories of publicly traded American manufacturing companies between 1981 and 2000. The median of inventory holding periods were reduced from 96 days to 81 days. The average rate of inventory reduction is about 2% per year. The greatest reduction was found for...

Multi-criteria robust design of a JIT-based cross-docking distribution center for an auto parts supply chain
Shi, Wen; Liu, Zhixue; Shang, Jennifer; Cui, Yujia - In: European Journal of Operational Research 229 (2013) 3, pp. 695-706
We present a solution framework based on discrete-event simulation and enhanced robust design technique to address a … provides steady parts supply to downstream assembly plants. In the proposed approach, we first construct a simulation model … between the simulation responses and system factors. We employ the response surface methodology (RSM) to identify factor …

VRP algorithms for decision support systems to evaluate collaborative urban freight transport systems
Gonzalez-Feliu, Jesus; Grau, Josep-Maria Salanova - HAL - 2014
This paper proposes a comparison between genetic and semi-greedy algorithms for a collaborative VRP in city logistics. In order to compare the performance of both algorithms on real-size test cases, we develop a cluster-first route second algorithm. The clustering phase is made by a seep...
