Adaptation and coordination of fractal supply chain in (manufacturing) industry;

Based upon fractal theory,a fractal supply chain serving the functions of selfsimilarity,self-organization and self-optimization is proposed for high-uncertainty demands of customers of an e-Biz company under networked manufacturing so as to balance dynamically the flexibility and stability in building its supply chain and relevant operation.

In order to soive the more and more complicated supply chain problem,this paper introduces the definition and characteristics of fractal supply chain based on the theory of fractal,and thinks that its characteristics such as self-similarity,self-organization and self-optimization can well improve flexibility of supply chain,and strengthen its ability to meet environment.

For a multi-echelon distributed supply chain consisted of a manufacturer,multi-warehouses and multi-detailers,with multi-productions,we developed a triple-level collaborative production-distribution planning model aimed to maximize the profit of each level.

For a multi-echelon distributed supply chain consisted of a manufacturer,a distribution center and a retailer,we develop a triple-level production-distribution programming model,and design an interactive method based on fuzzy theory for solving the model.
