Riassunto:

Aligning the latest practices, innovations and case studies with academic frameworks and theories, the broad area of multi-criteria and game theory applications in manufacturing and logistics is covered in comprehensive detail.

Divided into two parts, part I is dedicated to ‘multi-criteria applications’ and includes chapters on logistics with a focus on vehicle routing problems, a multi-objective decision making approach to select the best storage policy and an exploratory study to predict the most important factors that can lead to successful mobile supply chain management adoption for manufacturing firms. Part II covers ‘game theory applications’ and encompasses the process of forming a coalition within a corporate network to the problem of integrating inventory and distribution optimization together with game theory to effectively manage supply networks.

Providing a forum to investigate, exchange novel ideas and disseminate knowledge covering the broad area of multi-criteria and game theory applications in manufacturing and logistics, Applications of Multi-Criteria and Game Theory Approaches is an excellent reference for students, researchers but also managers and industry professionals working with manufacturing and logistics issues.

He is currently the head of the CNRS Aix-Marseilles Research Federation of Informatics and Interactions (FRIIAM) and of the research team on Knowledge, Decision and Monitoring at LSIS, Marseilles, France. He is the author or co-author of more than 130 articles, including 37 articles in leading scientific journals, 12 book chapters and 76 articles in international conferences. His research interests are in the field of systems theory, optimization, game theory, control under constraints, discrete event decision systems and manufacturing systems.

Prof. Manoj Kumar Tiwari is working in the area of Computational Intelligence and its application in Manufacturing and Operations Management. His contribution has also been focused to solve the production planning and control problems of manufacturing. Issues and concerns related to Supply Chain Management have also been taken care of by Prof. M.K. Tiwari. He has published more than 187 papers in international journals of repute and more than 90 paper is several national and international conferences. He is listed among the top 20 Most Productive Authors in the area of Production and operations management as reported in the last 50 years (Published in a survey article in Int. Journal of Production Economics 2009, 12, 540-551) and rated 2nd among many researchers working in Logistics and Supply Chain Management in India (Analysis of the logistics Research in India-White paper published in TU Dortmund University, Dortmund Germany-2012). He is serving as Associate Editors of IEEE System, Man and Cybernetics, Part A, (SMCA), International Journal of Production research (Taylor and Francis), Computer and Industrial Engineering (Elsevier), International Journal of System Science (Taylor and Francis) and Journal of Intelligent Manufacturing (Springer) and Neuro-computing (Elsevier). Prof. Tiwari is in the editorial board of several international journals such as EJOR, IJPR, IJCIM, PPC, RCIM, IMechE, Part C, IJAMT, JTS, etc. Prof. Tiwari is well known for grooming Under Graduate and Post Graduate students to carry out research and build up their career through research route. Several students of Prof. Tiwari are working as faculty members in different Universities of UK and US and also in very good companies of world.
