Ein Catena-X Use-Case Kollaborative Materialflusssimulationen zur Steuerung der Verknüpfung von Supply Chain und Shopfloor

Global supply chains can only be operated efficiently if the entire chain reacts flexibly to disruptions, which requires a shared realistic understanding of the current state of the supply chain. The research activity "Online Control and Simulation" in the German funding project Catena-X achieves this understanding through distributed, collaborative material flow simulation of production and logistics. For this purpose, a management application was designed and prototypically implemented with which participating companies can exchange simulation results and initiate their own simulations based on up-to-date information.
