International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Systems Management IESM’2013 October 28 - 30, 2013 RABAT - MOROCCO Literature review on OR tools and methods for collaboration in supply chains * Nicolas DANLOUP a,b , Hamid ALLAOUI a,b , Gilles GONCALVES a,b a Univ Lille Nord de France, F-59000 Lille, France b UArtois, LGI2A, F-62400 Béthune, France Abstract This paper reviews the literature on operation research tools and methods for collaboration in supply chains. Collaborative supply chains have become an important element for recent years. First, optimization methods for the collaborative supply chain are presented for both vertical and horizontal collaboration. In horizontal collaboration, collaborative transportation management is the most present in the literature. Then several simulation tools are presented. Key words: Collaboration, Supply chain, Simulation, Optimization * This work is supported by SCALE project. Corresponding author N. Danloup Email addresses: ndanloup@hotmail.fr
