This paper presents a framework of smart real-time performance monitoring and controlling of next-generation supply chains. It is based on enabling a set of Internet-of- Things (IoT) functions across the supply chain for ...

This paper addresses the multi-objective stochastic optimization problem that arises in many real-world applications, especially in supply chain management and optimization.To this end, a simulated annealing algorithm is ...

In this research, we have developed a linear programming formulation to describe Qatar steel manufacturing supply chain from suppliers to consumers. The purpose of the model is to provide answers regarding the optimal ...
