Research On Shipbuilding Agile Supply Chain Based On Cas Theory

Nowadays, most shipyards of our country are in a process of converting from conventional shipbuilding mode to modern shipbuilding mode. In the environment of the increasing personalized and diverse demand of customers, in order to achieve modern shipbuilding mode, which is customer-oriented. It requires shipping corporation to operate quickly to meet the different needs of customers, making it as an agile organization. Corresponding Supply Chain Management (SCM) has to get agile, making modern shipbuilding to achieve effective resource and information management.Usage of complex adaptive system theory to study shipbuilding supply chain will help reveal the complex adaptive nature of the entity and can be a good initiative and dynamism that can describe the interaction between the entities, which provide a powerful decision-making on relevant support, to help enterprises of all kinds of vessels to obtain a better understanding of complex phenomena to be controlled, thus a new perspective to guide the ship production and the construction of agile supply chain management.This paper described the theory of complex adaptive systems and analyzes the shipbuilding supply chain's complexity and adaptability. Using the essence of complex adaptive systems theory - Agent theory, this paper designed the principle of the shipbuilding agile supply chain's management structure, made the the structure of shipbuilding agile supply chain based on multi-Agent and constructed the structure model of shipyard which plays a key role in shipbuilding agile supply chain. On the basis above, using Web Service technology, the paper constructed the information sharing framework for all the enterprises in the shipbuilding supply chain, which promoted the information sharing level among the shipbuilding supply chain. Combining the"building block"mechanism, one point of the CAS theory, this paper resolved the task allocation problem of shipbuilding agile supply chain by using the PSO algorithm calculated by prgramming. According to the feature of the shipbuilding agile supply chain, combing the character of"flow"in the CAS theory, the paper put forward the conception of adaptive ability of supply chain, estabulished a system of index to evaluate the adaptive ability, derived the related data of each index from the research in practical. Finally, using comprhensive fuzzy evaluation method, the paper evaluated the adaptive ability of shipbuilding agile supply chain of one large-scale shipbuilding enterprise locates in Jiangsu province.
