A Theoretical Approach,
By
This review is from: Agent-based Supply Network Event Management (Whitestein Series in Software Agent Technologies and Autonomic Computing) (Paperback)
It should come as no surprise to anyone in business that ripples in the supply chain can grow to tidal waves before they reach the bottom line. One example: an 18 strike at a brake supplier stopped production in 26 General Motors plants. Today everyone wants to minimize inventory, going to some form of Just-In-Time (JIT) delivery of components. This means that the potential for greater disruption of the manufacturing process grows with the shortness of the reserve for delayed delivery.
In this book the author has developed an autonomous, reactive/proactive agent that then has the ability to communicate with other agents or humans. This agent(a computer program of a special type) is developed for event management to maintain an almost continuous check on the supply line. This book uses a theoretical approach and does not provide actual code. |
