Research on the Robustness of the Complex Supply Chain Network

Supply chain is a network composes by business entities with different function. The robustness of supply chain determines the stability of a network. In this paper, based on the supply chain character, we propose a complex supply chain network. Then, we discuss different manifestations of the complex supply chain network based on random attacks and deliberate attacks, and analyze the robustness of the complex supply chain network. At last a simulation experiment is performed to discuss the robustness of the complex supply chain network.
