Intelligent Model for Distributing Product in Supply Chain Management

Utama et al. (2012)

Abstract. Distributing product is the one of many issues in supply chain management area. There are many variables that have to be involved to solve the problem, such as: type of transportation mode, optimum path, type of product, and performance of supply chain elements. By using multiple criteria decision making concept, we use four methods (fuzzy ant colony optimization, analytical hierarchy process, smoothing exponential, and fuzzy simple additive weighting) to develop generic intelligent model for distributing product in supply chain management as the aims of this paper. We produce generic model to predict future trend, choose the transportation mode, and search the optimum path in supply chain.
