Abstract: Effective Supply Chain Management (SCM) approach must focus on flexible supply and production processes as well as rapidly respond to change of customer demands. To make up of existing drawbacks of association rule data mining algorithm, the paper brought out an improved algorithm and applies it in the product relativity analysis of SCM. Based on the algorithm, the solution of how the parts be arranged can achieve more cost-effective and higher profits can be achieved by data mining. The mining result can not only guide customers to correctly shopping, but also help manufacturers to design and produce goods, so that the companies can be in a better competitive position.

Abstract: This paper described two kinds types of enterprise application integration based on coordinated decision centra:within the enterprise application and inter-enterprise enterprises application integration. To implement these two kinds of application system integration, the framework and the main functions of the integration platform for e-commerce environment was presented in the paper, the integration techniques by CORBA encapsulating within the enterprise and the data exchange techniques using XML between enterprises were proposed. With this supply chain application integration platform, the main business processes for supply chain management and other enterprise applications can be integrated selflessly through suitable procedures to apply supply chain integrative management in multiple enterprises.

Abstract: Supply Chain Management (SCM) in today’s global environment, especially the E-commerce is crutial to create significant competition advantages to corporations. Since the objectives and purposes are essential factors in the study of SCM inE-commerce. The purpose of this paper is to deliver the research question, review the conceptual framework, ERP and environment for SCMS, point out their objectives, impact of SCM and utilize theories that help identifying the important factors of the SCM. The differences of Pre-Internet and E-commerce are listed to clarify the further research.

Abstract: According to the particularity of VE, this article discussed the organization patterns of VE. Based on that, it has brought forward and designed virtual enterprises’ organization based on the management thoughts of supply chain and information system network on integrated coordinated management.

Abstract: Enterprises in Taiwan are facing global competition which requires enterprises to implement sound business models and maintain effective operational processes. The most pressing need is to develop global logistic processes and models that satisfy rapidly changing business and operational objectives. This research studies how the automotive industry in Taiwan has adopted its logistic hubs to improve international business operations and objectives. In the first phase of the study, Taiwan automotive firms were surveyed and their current (as-is) logistic models were derived. In the second phase, based on the industry characteristics and the company’s global strategy, the improved (to-be) logistic processes were derived. Further, a case of Taiwan automobile manufacturers is used to apply and demonstrate the to-be logistic models and evaluate the performance of the proposed models. The resulting framework for a global logistic hub is designed to improve the operations of automotive companies with respect to time and cost, as well as to ensure information sharing among automotive supply chain partners.

Abstract: In supply chain management, supplier’s judgment and choice of the core enterprise has become key technology problem. Based on extension matter-element theory, the multilevel index judgment model of the supplier’s judgment and choice is established by extension analytic hierarchical process and the example shows that the method is feasible and valid. Firstly, the multi-layer judgment index structure of the supplier’s judgment and choice system is founded and the inconsistent dimension of all indexes is transformed to consistent one or dimensionless by the extension matter-element and their transform theory so as to set identical scale graduation. Then, the distinguish matrix of the multilevel extension section number is set and the weight vector of satisfying consistency condition of the index levels relative to the global goal level of is computed. Finally, the conclusion of the judgment and choice by judgment function is educed. The method not only expands two extremeness things of the traditional analytic hierarchical process so as to accord with factual condition entirely, but also the value range of the relation function enlarge to whole real number field so as to judge refinement and quantification.
