Abstract :
In this paper, an Internal Model Control (IMC) scheme is incorporated in production inventory control systems in a complete supply chain. The IMC control scheme is enhanced with a novel method for the online identification of lead times based on a multimodel scheme. In this way, all benefits of the IMC scheme can be exploited. Simulation examples illustrate the effectiveness of the approach.
