A Research of Supply Chain Competition Model Based on the Method of Traffic Network Equilibrium

The supply chain system which is shown in the form of network is a complicated network formed by many independent supply chains in dynamic interaction.How the supply chains compete with each other and which one can be the most competitive are critical issues to be studied in supply chain management field.The authors use traffic equilibrium principle to probe the competition behavior among supply chains,construct a model of supply chain competition and hold that equilibrium surely exists in supply chain competition and the most competitive supply chain exists surely.
