Abstract
The integration of AI technologies based on large language models (AI-LLM) with big data analytics has revolutionized digital manufacturing and enabled real-time decision-making in operations and supply chain management (OSCM). However, traditional data envelopment analysis (DEA) models face prohibitive computational complexity in large-scale environments, hindering their adoption for such AI-LLM-driven optimization tasks as demand forecasting, inventory control, and energy efficiency enhancement. To bridge this gap, we propose a dominance–relation-driven DEA framework tailored for big data environments contexts in digital manufacturing. Our approach leverages spatial relationship characteristics and grouping algorithms to reduce computational complexity by 10–30 times, as validated through numerical simulations on industrial datasets. A case study on the Chaohu Lake watershed further demonstrates its practical value in LLM-enhanced environmental monitoring and sustainable supply chain design. This research presents a scalable solution for optimizing efficiency in digital manufacturing, addressing critical challenges in predictive analytics and resource allocation.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Production Economics focuses on the interface between engineering and management. It covers all aspects of manufacturing and process industries, as well as production in general. The journal is interdisciplinary, considering activities throughout the product life cycle and material flow cycle. It aims to disseminate knowledge for improving industrial practice and strengthening the theoretical base for decision making. The journal serves as a forum for exchanging ideas and presenting new developments in theory and application, combining academic standards with practical value for industrial applications.
