| Abstract | The effective practice of supply chain management (SCM) is crucial to improve corporations' competitive advantage. Many corporations have built simulation models to facilitate the application of simulation in designing, evaluating, and optimizing their supply chain. Traditionally, a supply chain involves only a single enterprise with multiple facilities and distribution centers. Hence, sharing of detailed simulation models is not a problem in this scenario. But in recent years, the scope of SCM has evolved to cross the enterprise boundaries. Applying simulation in designing, evaluating, and optimizing the supply chain becomes more difficult since the participating corporations might not be willing to share their simulation models with partners. In this paper, distributed simulation techniques are presented as an enabling technology that allows corporations to construct a cross enterprise simulation while hiding model details within the enterprise. This can be realized by either buildin... |
