Abstract:
In this paper, we review simulation and modeling techniques focusing on green and sustainable supply chains. We start by introducing green supply chains and the importance of being aware of environmental friendliness. We show how environmental performance is measured and analyzed, and then discuss the extension of green to sustainable supply chains. Taking into account the complex interrelations within supply chains, we give an overview of modeling and simulation techniques. This enables us to explain how supply chain behavior can be predicted and optimized under a set of given objectives. We

Art Therapist Tova Speter shares a sample from Translations: connected art reflecting empathy (c.a.r.e.), a creative example of how engagement in a collaborative art experience can help people feel connected despite being physically isolated. This community art experience was launched in response to the isolating effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Over 100 artists participated in nineteen chains of six linked artistic expressions translating the words of the community through art. The six links in each chain offered a creative way to connect, which offset the 6 feet of physical distance

Globalisation increases the numbers of involved business partners and distances between origin and destination. It complicates and stretches supply chains. Consequently, supply chains are exposed to higher risks, especially in rural societies where there is limited access to technology and the society is isolated.

However, there remains a gap in the use of the existing risk and resilience factors to the specific c

Complex visual effects such as caustics are often produced by light paths containing multiple consecutive specular vertices (dubbed specular chains) , which pose a challenge to unbiased estimation in Monte Carlo rendering.

We show that the specular manifolds formed by all the sub-paths could be exploited to provide coherence among sub-paths. By reconstructing continuous energy distributions from historical and coherent sub-paths, seed chains can be genera

Abstract The application of Markov chains to modelling refugee crises is explored, focusing on local migration of individuals at the level of cities and days. As an explicit example, we apply the Markov chains migration model developed here to United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees data on the Burundi refugee crisis. We compare our method to a state-of-the-art ‘agent-based’ model of Burundi refugee movements, and highlight that Markov chain approaches presented here can improve the match to data while simultaneously being more algorithmically efficient.

This project is a composition of the intersectionality between process, structure, and materiality, and an obsession, fixation, and fetishization of the simplistic yet repetitive ‘chain’ form. The thematic infatuation with the chain form became evident throughout my work in Spring 2014, while working with bronze, wood, and brass at the Slade School of Fine art in London, England. This fall I expanded on this concept to create my own representations of the chain form, abstracting and deterring it from any sociocultural origins, contexts, or landscapes.

Supply chain exchange relationships are complex and sometimes chaotic sociological and organisational phenomena. This complexity is compounded by the boundary spanning necessity of forming supply chain partnerships that are further exacerbated by goal divergence and asymmetric information. One of the main questions for consideration is how these dyadic exchange relationships are maintained and develop over time in response to the various channel behaviours of the actors (the buyer and seller)? In particular, exchange relationships are theorised to be sensitive in some degree to attempts at eco

Abstract Mooring chains for permanently moored structures – including FPSOs - have shown rapid corrosion of the chain in warm waters. Cathodic protection of mooring lines is normally not provided due to the discontinuous nature of chain links and installation constraints.

Abstract:
Three-dimensional printing (3DP)/additive layer manufacturing (ALM) allows the cost-effective and fast fabrication of parts with intricate/complex external and internal structure via the addition of material layer-by-layer in a controlled environment. Hence, 3DP/ALM related technology has a significant potential to mitigate most spare parts related challenges present in the offshore petroleum industry. That is especially the case in offshore petroleum operations in remote locations and harsh environments (e.g. Arctic operations), when parts can be printed on-site upon demand. Digitalized and l

Abstract:
The countries with the greatest capacity to develop, produce and acquire state-of-the-art semiconductor chips hold key advantages in the development of emerging technologies. At present, the United States and its allies possess significant leverage over core segments of the supply chain used to produce these chips. This policy brief outlines actions the United States and its allies can take to secure that advantage in the long term and use it to promote the beneficial use of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes quantitative findings on the innovative behavior of firms in the production chains of pisco and shoe manufacture in Peru, which are served by the network of Technological Innovation Centers (CITEs), the most important technology policy instrument available in Peru. These two chains, in low and medium-technology industries, are representative of Peru's manufacturing sector. Of particular interest is the role of technical standards as a means of technological diffusion, which is stressed in the work of the CITEs. For the pisco chain, that role involves the definition of the p

Abstract:
Nanotechnology facilitated the development and scalable commercialization of many SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. However, the supply chains underpinning vaccine manufacturing have demonstrated brittleness at various stages of development and distribution. Whereas such brittleness leaves the broader pharmacological supply chain vulnerable to significant and unacceptable disruption, strategies for supply chain resilience are being considered across government, academia, and industry. How such resilience is understood and parameterized, however, is contentious. Our review of the nanotechnology supply chain

Abstract:
Women and gender-diverse people represent an important constituency in the food value chain. Among all working women globally, about one in three works upstream in the food value chain. These women face increasing barriers to safety, recognition and advancement. Yet very little about their experiences has been documented. In the limited instances where the women who power global supply chains have been put into focus, most have concentrated on the experiences of women workers in the apparel sector.

Abstract:
A widespread view in the private sector is that the lack of access to finance significantly limits the entry into and the performance of value chains. Access to finance is expensive, scarce, and short term in countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, and it hampers firms' investment and the financial management required to gain entry and remain as participants in a value chain. The lack of access to finance is a consequence of a series of market failures that form the basis for public policy intervention. The region's development banks and specialized agencies have thus designed programs t

Abstract:
Supply chain management in Asia is a relatively novel topic but a key challenge for all Asian based manufacturers and traders when trying to integrate into the "global market". The purpose of the paper is to describe key supply chain issues faced in Asia. These issues are related to supply chain security that forces Asian firms to comply with numerous requirements as well as the importance of a properly managed supply chain in enhancing firms' competitiveness. The critical role played by Asian based logistics providers in facilitating supply chain integration is explored. Logistics providers m

Abstract:
Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) are major sources of natural resource consumption and environmental impacts such as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. At the same time, MSMEs make up a large part of the value chains of multinational and publicly traded companies, and thereforeoffer a unique point of entry to improve value chain environmental management practices while simultaneously promoting economic development in the region. In this vein, the Multilateral Investment Fund (MIF), a member of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) Group, aims to improve MSME competitiveness throug

Abstract:
Hundreds of millions of microenterprises in emerging economies face increased competition from the entry and expansion of large firms that offer similar products. This paper studies how one of the world's most prevalent microenterprises, neighborhood shops, confront competition from convenience chains (e.g., 7-Eleven) in Mexico. To address the endogeneity in time and location of chain store openings, I pair two-way fixed effects with a novel instrument that, at the neighborhood level, shifts the profitability of chains but not of shops.
