Abstract:
Supply chains are
now at the center-stage of business performance of manufacturing and service
organizations. In this article, we provide a bird's eye view of
major decision issues in the
design and operation of high performance supply chains. We bring out the
important role that mathematical and simulation models can play in
supply chain management. We also outline a current research effort
at the Indian Institute of Science in building an object oriented
decision support system for supply chain management.
