Network performance can be significantly improved through more harmonious and equitable peer-to-peer inter-enterprise relationships, conforming decentralized and collaborative decision-making models.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTraditional hierarchical manufacturing networks are based on centralized models, where some of the actors involved must adapt themselves to the constraints defined by those who are most dominant. Real-world experiences of such models have revealed some major problems due to the centralized vision of the supply chain and the sub-optimal performance of centralized decision-making. For the current highly dynamic markets, this generates major inefficiencies in operation throughout the supply chain.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book collects the latest research regarding non-hierarchical manufacturing networks and provides enterprises with valuable models, methods and guidelines to improve their competitiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Raul Poler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848214812\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848214811\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley-Iste\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/26\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 1.20d","brand":"Raul Poler","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48519538442495,"sku":"9781848214811","price":236.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f15f3891-52f8-4a03-beea-3370b91104d1.jpg?v=1778737703","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/intelligent-non-hierarchical-manufacturing-networks-raul-poler-9781848214811","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
