演講者簡介 : Ying-Ju Chen got his Ph.D. in Operations Management from New York University in 2007. He is currently serving as Assistant Professor of Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at University of California at Berkeley. His research field is in supply chain coordination, auction design, incentive contracts, and efficiency under competitive behavior.
演講摘要 : Past literature in supply chain management either focuses on scenarios where complete information is available or adopts a simplified two-layer setting when information asymmetry is introduced. When there are multiple sources of asymmetric information, a cascade of two-layer problems arises and it significantly complicates the contract design problem because the optimization outcomes of one layer may serve as inputs of the other layer. In this talk, we will investigate the impact of information asymmetry among contracting parties on the operational decisions (capacity allocation, demand forecasting, and compensation scheme design) in the multi-tier supply chains.
