Supply chains are faced with a rising complexity of products, structures, and processes. Because of the strong link … between a supply chain’s complexity and its efficiency the supply chain complexity management becomes a major challenge of … a supply chains’ complexity. To map the effects of the drivers and to understand the different dimensions of complexity …

production efficiency. It induces a high complexity level because of various customer requirements and a steadily changing … environment. However, mass customization has some potential to reduce complexity. These interdependencies between mass … customization and complexity form a Gordian knot that should be cut in order to point out that mass customization is not just an …

measurement of system complexity is still imprecise. For many systems, their modular construction brings challenges in … communication protocols which allow complexity to increase dramatically. We take a broad view of these issues and then consider the … nature of the system space which generates complexity. We show examples from cellular automata and applications of neural …
