Design of Simulator for Reverse Supply Chain Network

Article Preview

Abstract:

Recently, many countries have introduced various regulations and steps to reduce pollution and investigate to reuse energy. Thus, environmental conscious research has become important and has been widely studied in today's industries. Reverse supply chain network (RSCN) problem has been widely investigated in the research area. The purpose of this study is to design the simulator in the reverse supply chain network. Real world reverse supply chain network problem has many factors and constraints. Considering the complexity of solving such model, this study had applied the simulation technology. This study shows basic design concept and architecture of simulator for the reverse supply chain network problem. The simulator can be used to decide a realistic reverse supply chain network planning in the area.
