Product-related information can be integrated with the help of a product ontology, which can provide consensual definitions of concepts and inter-relationships relevant in a product domain of interest. A product ontology is either given by a third party or results from ontology engineering. In both cases, the problem is how to assess its quality, and then select the “right” ontology. This chapter: (1) proposes a metrics suite for product ontology evaluation based on semiotic theory, and (2) demonstrates the feasibility and usefulness of the metrics suite using a supply chain model. The contribution of this research is the comprehensive metrics suite that takes into account the various quality dimensions of product ontology.

Integration Problems

In recent years, product ontology has been proposed for solving integration problems in product-related information systems such as e-commerce and supply chain management applications. A product ontology provides consensual definitions of concepts and inter-relationships being relevant in a product domain of interest. Adopting such an ontology requires means for assessing their suitability and selecting the “right” product ontology. In this article, the authors (1) propose a metrics suite for product ontology evaluation based on semiotic theory, and (2) demonstrate the feasibility and usefulness of the metrics suite using a supply chain model. The contribution of our research is the comprehensive metrics suite that takes into account the various quality dimensions of product ontology.

Management Case Study

Indonesia dengan mayoritas penduduk muslim terbesar memiliki potensi dalam pengembangan industri halal. Perkembangan industri halal harus ditunjang dengan pengembangan rantai pasok yang tepat. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian konseptual yang bertujuan untuk mengembangkan model rantai pasok halal di Indonesia. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah telaah pustaka dan wawancara narasumber ahli. Model konseptual yang dikembangkan dalam artikel ini berfokus pada aspek peran pemangku kepentingan dalam implentasi rantai pasok halal. Pemangku kepentiangan yang sangat berperan adalah: (1) pelaku usaha/ industri halal, (2) pemerintah, (3) Perguruan Tinggi/ Lembaga Riset, (4) pelaku usaha infrastruktur penunjang rantai pasok halal, dan (5) masyarakat. Abstract[Development of Conceptual Model Halal Supply Chain Management Case Study Indonesia] Indonesia with the majority muslim population has the potential to develop the halal industry. The development of halal industry mus be supported by development of the right supply chain. This research is a conceptual research that aims to develop the concept of halal supply chain model that is adapted to conditions Indonesia. The research method is literatur review and expert interview. The conceptual model developed in this article focuses on aspects of the role of stakeholders in the implementation of halal supply chains. Stakeholders who play a very important role are: (1) halal business/ industry, (2) government, (3) Higher Educatio/ Research Institutions, (4) business actors supporting halal supply chain infrastructure, and (5) community.Keywords: supply chain management; halal; model halal supply chain management; halal supply chain management

Supply Chain Model

According to game theory, chaotic dynamics theory, and complexity based on the literature review about the pricing strategy and recycling channels of the closed-loop supply chain, on the background of the widespread hybrid recycling channels in Chinese electronic products market, this paper builds a closed-loop supply chain model with dual-channel recycling composed of one manufacturer and one third-party. We assume that the consumer perception towards the remanufacturing products is uncertain and limited. We carry on theoretical analysis of this model and perform numerical simulations from the perspective of entropy theory. Results show that a precipitous speed of recycling price adjustment of the manufacturer or the third-party will both lead the system into a chaotic state and cause the entropy of the system to increase. The system is sensitive to initial conditions in this chaotic condition. Focusing on the harmful effects of chaotic system, we introduce adjustment parameter to efficiently control the chaos. The results have a strong reference value to practical problems, so it has a great value in both theory and application.

Technology has shrunk the global markets and information is accessible very quickly and effortlessly. Business organizations world over concentrate on their production systems to improve the quality of the end product, well distribute the product and optimize cost of resources. Transportation cost, inventory carrying cost and shortage costs constitute the major costs in cost of distribution. A competent supply chain always strives to manufacture the right quantity of end products and hold a minimum inventory across the entire supply chain. In thecurrent paper, a five echelon supply chain model is developed and it is optimized using particle swarm intelligence algorithm.

The way companies manage and integrate their business operations is undergoing various dramatic changes. Businesses are competing globally, and traditional barriers between industries are breaking down. One way of coping with the rapidly changing marketplace, remaining competitive and achieving superior performance, is for business leaders to move towards new business paradigms that allow their companies to work more closely together with their traditional and new business partners (including all clients and suppliers up and down the supply chain). The objective of this article is to document the players and processes of the current South African recording industry, and to consider a supply chain model where all non-core business activities are outsourced to an integrated third-party supply chain management partner.

Dependent Demand

This paper develops a fuzzy two-layer supply chain for manufacturer and retailer with defective and non-defective types of products. The manufacturer produces up to a specific time, including faulty and non-defective items, and after the screening, the non-defective item sends to the retailer. The retailer’s strategy is to do the screening of items received from the manufacturer; subsequently, the perfect quality items are used to fulfill the customer’s demand, and the defective items are reworked. The retailer considers that customer demand is time and reliability dependent. The supply chain considers probabilistic deterioration for the manufacturer and retailers along with the strategies such as production rate, unit production cost, cost of idle time of manufacturer, screening, rework, etc. The optimum average profit of the integrated model is evaluated for both the cases crisp and fuzzy environments. Managerial insights and the effect of changes in the parameters’ values on the optimal inventory policy under fuzziness are presented.
