Abstract

This paper presents a system called SC2 (supply chain smart coordination), a multi-agent system which was developed based on the business intelligence paradigm in order to better support the management of dynamic and multiple supply chains inside a virtual enterprise scenario. SC2 offers an integrated and global environment for coordinating the execution of business processes in the production, distribution and sales chains, according to the virtual enterprise life cycle. Via a lean interface based on XML and CORBA, SC2 can obtain reliable, timely and interoperable information from the supply chain members, comprising a number of heterogeneous information sources and legacy systems. Results are presented and discussed at the end of the paper.
