A Cyber-Physical AI Architecture for Real-Time Inventory Control in Vendor Managed Inventory Systems
Abstract: Vendor-managed inventory is commonly employed to mitigate demand amplification in supply chains, but typically relies on static re-order policies and out-of-date information, making it relatively unresponsive to highly dynamic and uncertain conditions. While strides have been made in predictive inventory management using artificial intelligence and new sources of industrial sensing, most models are decoupled from the physical world and serve as decision-support tools rather than automated control systems. In this …
