Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization of Supply Chains: A Continuous Approach

摘要: This book offers a state-of-the-art introduction to the mathematical theory of supply chain networks, focusing on networks described by partial differential equations (PDEs). The authors discuss modeling complex as well their theory; explore modeling, simulation, and optimization some discussed models; present analytical numerical results problems. Real-world examples are given demonstrate applicability presented approaches. Audience: Graduate students researchers who interested in PDEs will find this useful. It can also be used advanced graduate-level courses physical phenomena, introductory theory.
