Abstract

Abstract: Because the RFID technology can visualize the quantity on the way and the inventory status of the supply chain remotely and in real-time,a RFID-enabled electronic card system is designed. The CONWIP control strategy of multi-echelon production inventory system is extended to thedistribution network ofsupply chain.The CONWIPcontrol strategy model is established, and experimental simulation system is exploited. The strategy is compared with the (r,Q) and Push strategies under different network structuresof supply chain. The strategies’ influences on the performance of supply chain are verified by calculating the evaluationindex. Simulation results show that the RFID-Enabled CONWIP strategycan improve the performance of distribution networks of supply chain under a certain condition.
