The agent paradigm is widely used to create supply chain simulation tools. Despite its attractiveness and extensive utilization in research, agent technology and its integration with distributed supply chain planning tools still represent an open field. In particular, there is a vacuum of research in the analysis phase of agent-based methodological frameworks. This phase represents the early modeling effort, considerably influencing the whole creation process and the resulting experiments. To...
We describe an educational game in collaborative logistics. The game is based on an award winning application in cost allocation in forest transportation. The purpose of the game is to get an understanding of negotiation, coalition building and cost/profit sharing when the players have different power and hold different levels of information. The game is played with each player representing a single company. The objective of the game is to find an efficient plan and to share the benefits of t...
Ce document a été préparé afin de répondre à l’appel fait en juin 2020 du Ministre des Finances du Québec aux groupes de recherche qu’il appuie financièrement afin que ceux-ci proposent, par l’entremise de résultats de recherche appliquée ou de documents de réflexion, des actions à privilégier pour accélérer la reprise, assurer une croissance économique durable, dynamiser les régions du Québec et résorber le déficit budgétaire à venir tout en maintenant un financement adéquat pour la santé et...
The traditional approach to plan the forest products value chain using a combination of sequential and hierarchical planning phases leads to suboptimal solutions. We present an integrated planning model to support forest planning on the long term with anticipation of the impacts on the economic and logistic activities in the forest value chain on a shorter term, and we propose a novel optimization approach that includes acceleration strategies to efficiently solve large-scale practical instan...
