Title
Distributed supply chain simulation in GRIDS
Abstract
Amongst the majority of work done in Supply Chain Simulation, papers have emerged that examine the area of model distribution. The executions of simulations on distributed hosts as a coupled model require both coordination and facilitating infrastructure. A distributed environment, the Generic Runtime Infrastructure for Distributed Simulation (GRIDS) is suggested to provide the bonding requirements for such a model. The advantages of transparently connecting the distributed components of a supply chain simulation allow the construction of a conceptual simulation while releasing the modeler from the complexities of the underlying network. The infrastructure presented demonstrates scalability without loosing flexibility for future extensions based on open industry standards.
