ABSTRACT Big Data Analytics (BDA) has the potential to improve demand forecasting,
communications and better manage supply chain resources. Despite such recognised …

The study aims to investigate the effectiveness of information sharing and coordination
mechanisms in reducing uncertainty. Supply chains are constantly subject to unpredictable …

In many supply chains, firms staged in upstream of the chain suffer from variance
amplification emanating from demand information distortion in a multi-stage supply chain …

Purpose Although scholars argue that artificial intelligence (AI) represents a tool to
potentially smoothen the bullwhip effect in the supply chain, only little research has …

The coordination of order policies constitutes a great challenge in supply chain inventory
management as various stochastic factors increase its complexity. Therefore, analytical …

This research explores the causes and intensity of demand fluctuation and supply shortage
of a supply chain (SC) occurred specially at the festival times. Management offers sales …

A review of the past research studies on the causes of bullwhip effect is presented in this
paper. This paper is an effective study from the point of view that it presents a detailed …

The lack of coordination in supply chains can cause various inefficiencies like bullwhip effect
and inventory instability. Extensive researches quantified the value of sharing and …

This paper proposes an adaptive fuzzy control application to support a vendor managed
inventory (VMI). The methodology applies fuzzy control to generate an adaptive smoothing …

The bullwhip effect (BWE) is a phenomenon, which is caused by ineffective inventory
decisions made by supply chain members. In addition to known inefficiencies caused by the …
