Abstract

This paper describes a supply chain simulation by using hybrid-models that combine discrete-event models and system dynamics models. The discrete-event models represent operational processes inside of supply chain, and the system dynamics models represent supply chain reactions under management circumstance. The scope is a real supply chain system with a large scale and complicated operational rules. The simulation results clarified supply chain features in a long-term manufacturing management environment.
