Abstract

Techniques based on discrete-event simulation have been widely used for network analysis and policy optimization in the domain of supply chain management. Previous researchers have developed and implemented architectures for simulation-based control for shop floor. A more detailed and high-fidelity simulation model is used for control purposes as opposed to that used for analytical purposes alone. This paper discusses the issues related to implementing a simulation based control architecture for actively controlling supply chain interactions.
