Robust Inventory Control Based on Online Switched-System in Cluster Supply Chains

This paper describes a robust inventory control strategy to find the optimal decision variables to weaken the bullwhip effect in cluster supply chains. The model is established to combine real-time optimization and simulation with regarding to the across-chain inventory cooperation. The robust inventory control based on switched system (SRC) incorporates online inventory decision-making system to overcome model uncertainties and external disturbance. It is proved that this method .is more effective and efficient to tune the controller in face of changing environment.
