Study on E-Supply Chain Managemet in Automobile Part Industry Based on Multi-Agent System

A major problem faced by automobile part industry is how to provide efficient and cost-effective responses to the unpredictable changes taking place in a global market. This problem is made difficult by the complexity of supply chain networks coupled with the complexity of individual manufacturing systems within supply chains. This paper thus provides an electronic supply chain management (E-SCM) system by adopting the techniques of the multi-agent. The proposed system can integrate different information technologies to make its behavior more intelligent and to catch more useful information from customers.
