RETRACTED ARTICLE: Design of prototype system for multi-agent supply chain information sharing benefit distribution management

Abstract

As the international market environment changes more and more fierce, the potential for enterprises to improve their ability to adapt to market changes and improve their competitiveness will become smaller and smaller, and the difficulty will increase, such as product delivery speed, quality, cost and service. The level will obviously be constrained by the relationship between product manufacturers and suppliers of raw materials and components, product distributors, etc. More and more enterprises are beginning to effectively carry out internal management changes, and the traditional competitive relationship among enterprises gradually transforming into a new type of partnership. The supply chain plays an increasingly important role in the process of enterprise competition. High-level supply chain operation and management are the key to successful operation of the company. The supply chain is a complex system, which requires members to reduce the “bullwhip effect” through information sharing, to achieve decision synchronization, reduce inventory, and improve market response. Therefore, information sharing is an important part of supply chain research. The competition in the century is the competition between supply chains. The end-customer’s individualization of products, the increasing requirements for diversification, and the increasing uncertainty of the economic environment have prompted enterprises to pay more and more attention to the coordination of relations among members of the supply chain. The key to coordinate the supply chain is to realize information sharing. This paper proposes an architecture of agile supply chain management system based on the multi-agent information sharing under the guidance of self-organization theory. At the same time, the prototype of the supply chain management system was established by using web technology, distributed object technology (CORBA/DCOM) and related information resource organization and management technology.
