Multi-criteria decision techniques for context-aware B2B collaboration in supply chains
In today's rapidly changing environment, B2B collaboration technologies are crucial to support the growing complexity and diversity of supply chains. This paper proposes a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) technique, Deviation Measure, to support ...
A decision support system for integrating manufacturing and product design into the reconfiguration of the supply chain networks
A supply chain needs to meet its customers' requirements (CRs) in terms of delivery lead times, total costs and product quality. The objective of this article is to improve the level of integration in all aspects of supply chain reconfiguration, such as ...
The application of discrete event simulation and system dynamics in the logistics and supply chain context
Discrete event simulation (DES) and system dynamics (SD) are two modelling approaches widely used as decision support tools in logistics and supply chain management (LSCM). A widely held belief exists that SD is mostly used to model problems at a ...
Design and development of a context-aware decision support system for real-time accident handling in logistics
This paper describes the design and development of a context-aware fleet management system (CFMS) prototype for real-time accident handling in logistics using a design science approach. One of the most important decisions in fleet management is the ...
Supply chain risk management in French companies
The risk thematic is not new in management, but it is a recent and growing subject in supply chain management. Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) plays a major role in successfully managing business processes in a proactive manner. Supply chain risk ...
RFID-enabled shelf replenishment with backroom monitoring in retail stores
This contribution is concerned with the value of RFID for retail store operations, particularly the use of the technology to automate shelf replenishment decisions. We construct and test an inventory control policy based on RFID data with case-level ...
Building data warehouses with semantic web data
The Semantic Web (SW) deployment is now a realization and the amount of semantic annotations is ever increasing thanks to several initiatives that promote a change in the current Web towards the Web of Data, where the semantics of data become explicit ...
A platform for situational awareness in operational BI
Enterprises are being swamped with data, and much of it is unstructured in origin. As these data volumes for unstructured data increase, there is a need to extract more value from them. For the purpose of gaining business insight, besides traditional ...
A personalization process for spatial data warehouse development
Spatial data warehouses (SDW) rely on extended multidimensional (MD) models in order to provide decision makers with appropriate structures to intuitively explore spatial data by using different analysis techniques such as OLAP (On-Line Analytical ...
A practical application of our MDD approach for modeling secure XML data warehouses
Data warehouses are systems that provide useful information to support the decision making process, thus improving organizations' business processes. These systems integrate heterogeneous sources which are not only limited to their internal business ...
