Abstract

Supply chain is easily vulnerable to be influenced by internal and external environments because of the characteristics of multiple links,multiple participants,cross-boundary and other features,leading to the risk of supply chain. Therefore,based on complex network theory,we summed up the complex network characteristics of supply chain,analyzed the research status of network simulation analysis and complex network theory in supply chain network. Combining with the characteristics of complex network,we summed up the evaluation methods to the risk of supply chain on complex network from different scholars at home and abroad,proposed several open issues in researching risk communication in supply chain of complex network,and also proposed the research direction of supply chain risk management based on the theory of complex network,which can provide the direction for future research.
