Title
Spreadsheet vs. multiagent-based simulations in the study of decision making in supply chains
Abstract
A game called the Quebec Wood Supply Game (QWSG) is a role-playing simulation based on the Beer Game for teaching supply chain dynamics, and, in par- ticular, the bullwhip effect. In this context, this paper describes and compares two simulators based on the QWSG which may be used to study decision making and its impact on supply chain dynamics. We first focus on the direct implementation of the QWSG in a spreadsheet program. This spreadsheet model is the base on which we next build a more complex MultiAgent Based Simulation (MABS) in which JACK TM
