This book was released on 2013 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resource allocation in supply chain management studies how to allocate the limited available resources economically/optimally to satisfy the demands. It is an important research area in operations research. This dissertation focuses on the modeling and optimization of three problems. The first part of the dissertation investigates an important and unique problem in a supply chain distribution network, namely minimum cost network flow with variable lower bounds (MCNF-VLB). This type of network can be used to optimize the utilization of distribution channels (i.e., resources) in a large supply network, in order to minimize the total cost while satisfying flow conservation, lower and upper bounds, and demand/supply constraints. The second part of the dissertation introduces a novel method adopted from multi-product inventory control to optimally allocate the cache space and the frequency (i.e., resources) for multi-stream data prefetching in computer science. The objective is to minimize the cache miss level (backorder level), while satisfying the cache space (inventory space) and the total prefetching frequency (total order frequency) constraints. Also, efforts have also been made to extend the model for a multi-level, multi-stream prefetching system. The third part of the dissertation studies the joint capacity (i.e., resources) and demand allocation problem in a service delivery network. The objective is to minimize the total cost while satisfying a required service reliability, which measures the probability of satisfying customer demand within a delivery time interval.

Download or read book An Optimized Resource Allocation Approach to Identify and Mitigate Supply Chain Risks Using Fault Tree Analysis written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low volume high value (LVHV) supply chains such as airline manufacturing, power plant construction, and shipbuilding are especially susceptible to risks. These industries are characterized by long lead times and a limited number of suppliers that have both the technical know-how and manufacturing capabilities to deliver the requisite goods and services. Disruptions within the supply chain are common and can cause significant and costly delays. Although supply chain risk management and supply chain reliability are topics that have been studied extensively, most research in these areas focus on high vol- ume supply chains and few studies proactively identify risks. In this research, we develop methodologies to proactively and quantitatively identify and mitigate supply chain risks within LVHV supply chains. First, we propose a framework to model the supply chain system using fault-tree analysis based on the bill of material of the product being sourced. Next, we put forward a set of mathematical optimization models to proactively identify, mitigate, and resource at-risk suppliers in a LVHV supply chain with consideration for a firms budgetary constraints. Lastly, we propose a machine learning methodology to quan- tify the risk of an individual procurement using multiple logistic regression and industry available data, which can be used as the primary input to the fault tree when analyzing overall supply chain system risk. Altogether, the novel approaches proposed within this dissertation provide a set of tools for industry practitioners to predict supply chain risks, optimally choose which risks to mitigate, and make better informed decisions with respect to supplier selection and risk mitigation while avoiding costly delays due to disruptions in LVHV supply chains.

Download or read book Large-scale Optimization for Green Logistics and Stochastic Resource Allocation for Food Security written by Faisal M. M. Alkhannan Alkaabneh and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We studied several important management and policy analysis problems in food supply chain systems utilizing large-scale optimization, stochastic resource allocation, and data-analytics methodologies. We focused on three main research questions: 1) How can retailers build green, efficient last-mile logistics system when the objective is to maximize their profit and minimize the costs due to fuel consumption, inventory holding, and greenhouse gas emissions (Chapter 2); 2) what is the best environmental intervention policy to reduce the environmental externalities associated with the production of fruits and vegetables considering environmental and economic dimensions simultaneously (Chapter 3); and (3) How can food banks better manage food supplies distribution to combat food insecurity of underserved population (Chapters 4 & 5). Specifically, we have explored the following four dimensions in food supply chains 1) Benders decomposition for the inventory vehicle routing problem with perishable products and environmental costs. We consider the problem of inventory routing in the context of perishable products and find near-optimal replenishment scheduling and vehicle routes. To solve the problem efficiently, we develop an exact method based on Benders decomposition to find high-quality solutions in reasonable time and a two-stage meta-heuristic. 2) A systems approach to carbon policy for fruit supply chains: carbon tax, technology innovation, or land sparing? Reducing carbon emissions of food supply chains has increasingly received attention from businesses and policymakers. In order to propose sound policies aimed at lowering such emissions, policy makers favor tools that are informative in the economic and environmental dimensions simultaneously. In this study we offer a systems-based approach which is intended to do just that by developing a spatially and temporally disaggregated price equilibrium mathematical model for a food production and distribution system and applying it to the U.S. apple supply chain. We find that R&D which leads to storage technologies with lower carbon emission rates has the greatest potential for emission reduction. 3) Unified framework for efficient, effective, and fair resource allocation by food banks based on Approximate Dynamic Programming. The evidence linking food insecurity, poor nutrition, and increased risk of chronic health problems, combined with the high cost of health-care systems to treat food insecurity, poses significant health threats and presents challenges to the food bank system. We develop a framework for optimizing resource allocation by food banks using a dynamic programming model. To deal with the high-dimensional state space in the dynamic program, we construct approximations to the value function that are parameterized by a small number of parameters. Computational experiments using real-world data obtained from one of the food banks in New York State demonstrate the performance of the approach. Specifically, when compared against the policy currently implemented in practice, our algorithm demonstrates a 7.73% improvement in total utility. 4) Predicting demand patterns at mobile food pantries using interpretable analytics. In a food bank environment under limited budget and supplies, predicting demand patterns can help food bank better serve needy people and improve the efficiency of its operations. We use data from 80 mobile food pantry programs served by one of the food banks in New York state to build guidelines for food bank personnel to better forecast the demand at these programs. We construct a data-driven representation of programs and apply a broad class of analytics methods to predict several aspects of demand. Our study demonstrates that powerful data-analytics techniques combined with data-visualization models can be used to understand and interpret the variability in demand at mobile food pantry programs.

This book was released on 2024-07-23 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's supply chains are becoming more complex and interconnected. As a result, traditional optimization engines struggle to cope with the increasing demands for real-time order fulfillment and inventory management. With the expansion and diversification of supply chain networks, these engines require additional support to handle the growing complexity effectively. This poses a significant challenge for supply chain professionals who must find efficient and cost-effective solutions to streamline their operations and promptly meet customer demands. Quantum Computing and Supply Chain Management: A New Era of Optimization offers a transformative solution to these challenges. By harnessing the power of quantum computing, this book explores how supply chain planners can overcome the limitations of traditional optimization engines. Quantum computing's ability to process vast amounts of data from IoT sensors in real time can revolutionize inventory management, resource allocation, and logistics within the supply chain. It provides a theoretical framework and practical examples to illustrate how quantum algorithms can enhance transparency, optimize dynamic inventory allocation, and improve supply chain resilience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, supply chain planning has emerged as one of the most challenging problems in the industry. As a consequence, the planning focus is shifting from the management of plant-speci?c operations to a holistic view of the various logistics and productionstages, that is an approach in which suppliers, productionplants and customers are considered as constituents of an integrated network. A major dr- ing force behind this development lies in the globalization of the world economy, which has facilitated the co-operation between different partners working together in world-wide logistics networks. Hence, considerable cost savings can be gained from optimizing the structure and the operations of complex supply networks li- ing plants, suppliers, distribution centres and customers. Consequently, to improve the performance of the entire logistic chain, more sophisticated planning systems and more effective decision support are needed. Clearly, successful applications of supply chain management have driven the development of advanced planning systems (APS), which are concerned with s- porting decision-making activities at the strategic, tactical and operational decision level. These software packages basically rely on the application of quantitative methods, which are used to model the underlying complex decision problems c- sidering the limited availability of resources and the need to react on time to customer orders. The core module at the mid-term level of APS comprises op- ational supply chain planning. In many industries, productionstages are assigned to differentplantsand distribution centreshave been established at geographicallyd- persed locations.
