“…Similarly, Wilhelm et al (2005) studied a multi-period SCN problem under the North American Free Trade Agreement with consideration to shipment types, material flows, safety labor, and local and international rules. Eskigun et al (2005) considered several possible shipment strategies in their model. The proposed model in the present study focuses on the different types of conveyance.…”

This study aims to solve a typical long-term strategic decision problem on supply chain network design with consideration to uncertain demands. Existing methods for these problems are either deterministic or limited in scale. We analyze the impact of uncertainty on demand based on actual large data from industrial companies. Deterministic equivalent model with nonanticipativity constraints, branch-and-fix coordination, sample average approximation (SAA) with Bayesian bootstrap, and Latin hypercube sampling were adopted to analyze stochastic demands. A computational study of supply chain network with front-ends in Europe and back-ends in Asia is presented to highlight the importance of stochastic factors in these problems and the efficiency of our proposed solution approach.

“…A number of algorithms have shown success in solving such problems, including Lagrangian relaxation (Chen and Chu 2003;Eskigun et al 2005;Fisher 1981Fisher , 1985Jayaraman and Pirkul 2001;Min et al 2005;Pirkul and Jayaraman 1998;Putz 2007), column generation (Romeijn et al 2007), and various heuristic methods such as genetic algorithms (Chan et al 2005), simulated annealing (Jayaraman and Ross 2003), and tabu search (Shiguemoto and Armentano 2010); here we develop a Lagrangian relaxation approach to solving the MJIL problem.…”

“…The following five articles are not specifically global in nature but discuss topics that are applicable to international logistics. The models developed by Eskigun et al [24] (2005) and Grasman [28] (2006) relate to multimodal routing, an aspect that is common to global transportation models. Bilgen and Ozkarahan [7] (2004), Gunasekaran and Kobu [30] (2007), and Melo et al [51] (2009) survey topics in logistics and describe certain features that may be applicable to an international supply chain.…”

A supply chain denotes the series of operations by which raw materials are transformed into components, subassemblies, and finished goods, and then moved through a distribution system to the ultimate user or consumer of the item produced. Product transformation and storage occur at nodes of the network. When those are in different countries or areas of the world, logistics and transportation (between nodes) become even more important.In this tutorial, we review and compare a number of research papers. All are international in scope. Each article emphasizes one or more decisions or activities that distinguish a global supply chain. Some, such as location decisions and supplier selection, are important for domestic supply chains but are more complicated in the international arena. Major differences include border crossings and exchange rates. Other decisions, such as switching production from one country to another, are uniquely global and may depend upon tariffs, quotas, and local content restrictions.Following our rationale for the subset of literature that we chose, those articles are discussed, categorized, and compared in several complementary ways. An assessment is offered of the research conducted to date. Further studies that may be usefully undertaken are suggested.
