Abstract Recent years have witnessed e‐commerce platforms that voluntarily invest in new digital technologies to help their suppliers reduce production costs. To examine its impact on channel structure, we develop a supply chain model consisting of supplier and an platform who purchases products from the at wholesale price sells them end markets. In addition, has option accept marketplace by paying commission fee charged platform. We show presence voluntary investment improvement can...

Abstract In the realm of practical application, an increasing number manufacturers and retailers have embraced utilization blockchain technology to augment transparency traceability within their supply chains. Nonetheless, optimal allocation implementation a chain involving dual channels, while simultaneously addressing consumer privacy concerns, remains subject ambiguity. By elucidating this matter, our comprehension potential enhancements in management resulting from can be greatly...

Abstract We consider a one‐to‐one supply chain consisting of manufacturer and retailer study the retailer's two‐period information‐sharing decision problem. develop game‐theoretic model wherein produces product at certain level quality to static wholesale price or dynamic prices over two periods. The determines whether share market demand information with manufacturer. Conventional wisdom suggests that prefers not because double marginalization effect. Under setting, we show may disclose...

Abstract In practice, the demanders (customers) and providers (sellers) of logistics service platforms not only care about prices but also are sensitive to spatial distance between each other (because longer would lead waiting time). We study impacts preference on two competing platforms' pricing strategies. Two groups agents (demanders providers) required pay platform a fixed (registration) fees gain access. analyze commonly seen scenarios in practice: (i) single‐homing model—both can join...

Recently, e-commerce platforms have been acting as both a reseller and marketplace to serve consumers. This study considers hybrid-format supply chain that consists of supplier who sells product through an intermediary by wholesale price contract. In addition, the can decide whether accept intermediary’s offer engage in (if accepts, then agency fee should be paid intermediary). We develop game-theoretic model investigate impact encroachment on members. Then, we extend our basic check...

We consider two competing firms that sell quality‐differentiated products over periods, in which the high‐ or low‐quality have option to act as a pricing leader follower first second periods. Two groups of consumers make their purchase decisions with former using experience available latter from online communities (e.g., TikTok). Our analysis indicates competition intensity and consumers' reviews are interacting forces steer equilibrium firms.

This study examines a retailer’s decision to share market demand information in supply chain wherein supplier sells product with certain level of quality retailer, who then resells it the end consumer. It also considers whether should establish direct selling channel by incurring fixed entry cost compete retail channel. Although conventional wisdom indicates that retailer may voluntarily disclose under ex-ante encroachment, our results show how and why encroaches on quality. Specifically,...

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This study considers a supply chain consists of one manufacturer produces product with quality level and sells it through retailer. A stylized model is developed to investigate the impacts consumers' privacy concerns on pricing, decisions, profitability relationship between personal information. When concern considered, level, wholesale price, payoffs retailer, consumer surplus decrease information loss, whereas selling price increases if this loss low. Our...

In practice, before purchasing products, customers would compare the current price with past observed prices (referred to as intertemporal reference effect) and retail of other sellers horizontal effect). This study considers a two-period supply chain one manufacturer who sells product through two competing retailers. We assume that acts Stackelberg game leader, both retailers act followers. The can quote same or different wholesale for retailers, whereas employ pre-announced responsive...

A with the rapid development of e-commerce, influence online retailers gradually increased, vendors sell their products through have become an inevitable choice in era e-commerce. Vendors and fundamental differences channel control, distribution benefits, resulting presence both cooperation competition between two sides. In this paper, using replicator dynamics model, combined non-symmetric matrix, analysis evolution trend independent Internet suppliers game, proposes relevant suggestions...

Aiming at the condition that laboratory instrument resource can not meet demands of experimental teaching,management and upgrading because shortage, decentralization, obsolescence aging, therefore, a design proposal network experiment system based on Lab VIEW is presented. The data transmission tree modules which are virtual instruments, simulation real time measure achieved with application Data Socket technology Remote Panels technology. Practical shows this reduce attrition rate machines...

In order to meet the need of modern experimental teaching, improve experiment openness and flexibility. Constructing digital circuit system, fully embodies virtual instruments in operation advantage based on instrument technology, LabVIEW. Through analysis actual effect shows system more simple convenient, some characteristics relative stability performance experiments small errors use convenient save costs etc,so can be widely used teaching. Not only expanded scope space, but also exert...

In order to achieve the display effect of electronic combination lock system, this paper proposes a Proteus simulation test system design scheme based on single chip microcomputer, and completes hardware software system.The part mainly USES simulation, virtual instrument adopts singlechip c language programming, able complete visualization whole system.Practical application shows that circuit has characteristics simple operation, accurate test, meet requirements design.

In the RFID radio frequency identification system, multiple targets at high speed mobile position data transfer same time of channel conflict, and solving multi-objective conflict is most effective method through anti-collision algorithm. This article will analysis technology in moving target cause this paper introduces existing algorithm its related optimization algorithm, proposes a kind suitable for binary search continuous collision parity coding mode group, to area estimate size reduce...
