A Probability Distribution Model for Optimal Selecting Cooperators in Supply Chains

Article Preview

Abstract:

The cooperator’s optimal selection is a difficulty in manufacturing supply chains, but the complex networks developed rapid recent year provide us a new method. It proposed a probability distribution model for optimal selecting cooperator in supply chains. Analyzed the growth of Manufacturing Supply Chain Network Relationship Graph (MSCNRG) firstly, and put forward a probability distribution function consisted with degrees, relationships and conditions of the vertices; some experiments were carried out to check the model. The results of probability distribution model provide a novel method to analyze the optimal selecting cooperators in supply chains.
