Development of a system dynamic model for aggregate planning in supply chain

Supply chain is a series of different members which are connected to each other in order to satisfy a customer demand. Traditionally each members of supply chain operate independently but in today’s global market coordination of different members of the supply chain is necessary. Recently production...
