Abstract :
To supply chain network design problems with considering E-commerce of scale and further demand fluctuations, a reliability evaluation method is developed to evaluate the performance of plants under demand fluctuations. In addition, a mathematical programming model is developed to determine the optimal adjustment decisions regarding production reallocation among plants under different fluctuating demands to decrease cost and improve efficiency in e-commerce. Detailed simulation results and comparisons with the existed scheme prove the validity of the proposed model.
