Multi-tier supply chains in Industry 4.0 are critical emerging issues today. This article briefly
examines the Industry 4.0 policies in different countries. In order to decide on a better model …

Global sourcing and increased interdependencies between organisations have created
more complex multi-tier supply chains. While these supply chains have been instrumental in …

The study was an attempt to develop the model of a decision controller allowing for
simultaneous optimisation of the stock of semi-finished product generated during cutting and …

Over the past few years, supply chains have become globalised and multi-tiered. These
factors complicate their structure as the focal company is responsible for the problems …

This paper proposes a fuzzy multi-objective integer linear programming (FMOILP) approach
to model a material requirement planning (MRP) problem with fuzzy lead times. The …

Validated quantitative models for lean supply chain planning (LSCP) are still scarce in the
literature, particularly because conventional push systems have not been widely integrated …

In this work, we propose an integer linear programming model for production scheduling of a
group of finished products with independent demand. The model for the master production …

A general model for continuous material requirements planning problem is proposed which
contains of reworking of returned items along with deterioration of items. In the proposed …

In this paper, a novel method to solve Fully Fuzzy Mixed Integer Linear Programming
(FFMILP) problems is presented. Our method is based on the definition of membership …

The management of a military supply chain (SC) involves the integration of production,
packaging, warehousing, repair, maintenance and transportation of army supplies. In this …
