An Efficient Adaptive Supply Chain Model in B2C Electronic Commerce

To supply chain network design problems considering electronic commerce (e-commerce) of scale and further demand fluctuations, a reliability evaluation method is proposed to evaluate the performance of plants under demand fluctuations. In addition, an efficient mathematical model is proposed to adaptively determine the optimal adjustment decisions regarding production reallocation among plants under different fluctuating demands to decrease cost and improve efficiency in e-commerce. Detailed numerical results and comparisons with the existed scheme prove the validity of the proposed model.
