The system optimization perspective for multiproduct supply chain network

Abstract

In this paper, multiproduct supply chain network model is developed with system opti-mization perspective. Each kind of products has an individual cost function and, at the same time,contributes to its own and other product's cost function in an individual way. The well-known equi-librium algorithm is extended to nd system optimization pattern for such multiproduct supply chainnetwork.
