This research shows that supplier by means of deciding unit product reduction rate, and the proportion of reduction investment, and adopting price-discount contract can make all the manufacturers participate in cooperation union and achieve supply chain Pareto improvement.","PeriodicalId":6454,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management","volume":"28 1","pages":"953-957"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88364810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study can be categorized as vehicle routing and scheduling problem with time window constraints. A comparative study between two types of vehicle is conducted. The vehicle routing and scheduling are simulated in the various criteria. The result shows that motorcycle is more preferable for single supplier with six customers located in the metropolis. Motorcycle overcomes light truck in term of fixed cost, but yield slightly higher variable cost. However, when the number of customer increases, light truck becomes more preferable in term of vehicle capacity.","PeriodicalId":6454,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management","volume":"51 1","pages":"862-866"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77480642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
