A green manufacturing system is an important tool to realize green transformation of the manufacturing industry. The systematicness of green technology innovation as the key foundation of green manufacturing supports the entire huge green manufacturing system. In order to improve the effectiveness of multi-agent cooperation, it is necessary to analyze a series of green technology innovation achievements of manufacturing enterprises under multi-agent cooperation. First of all, inter-indicator correlation analysis and exploratory factor analysis were used to construct the evaluation index system of the green technology innovation performance of manufacturing enterprises under multi-agent cooperation. Then, a secondary combined evaluation model was constructed based on the evaluation conclusions. Finally, a theoretical framework was constructed to measure the performance of the green technology innovation of manufacturing enterprises under multi-agent cooperation. The results of this study are as follows: The evaluation index system of the green technology innovation performance of manufacturing enterprises under multi-agent cooperation is composed of the technology output, economic output, and social effect of green technology innovation. The key factors that influence the green technology innovation performance of manufacturing enterprises under multi-agent cooperation are the proportion of green technology transformation in traditional technology, the number of papers published jointly by multi-agent cooperation, the user acceptance of green technology products, and the degree of improvement of public environmental preference and consciousness. A fusion of technology of subjective and objective methods is an effective evaluation technique and can be applied to evaluate the performance of green technology innovation. The secondary combined evaluation combines the evaluation conclusions obtained by each single evaluation method in a certain form.

This article explores the issue of lead-time in response-based supply chains. From a tactical viewpoint of response-based supply chains, the processing time for each stage is assumed to be a random variable since different practices exist in the selection pool of each stage under a specific lead-time requirement. The decision-maker must select suitable practices of operations for each stage to ensure that the lead-time meets a desired requirement. The relationship and the trade-off between the operating costs for the selected practices and the inventory holding cost of safety stock that is in turn affected by the lead-time are discussed. A mathematical model for planning the operations from a manufacturer viewpoint is proposed. The variation in practical situation for the proposed model is also addressed. A hypothetic example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed model. With reference to the computational results, the effect of several parameters on the model’s optimal solutions was discussed.

Designing a cellular manufacturing system involves four major decisions: cell formation, cellular layout, operator assignment and cellular scheduling which should be considered, simultaneously. This article presents a new mathematical model to solve the cell formation, operator assignment and inter-cell layout problems, concurrently. The objectives of proposed model are minimization of inter–intra cell part movements, machine relocation cost and operator-related issues including hiring, firing, training and salary costs. Two numerical examples in both small and large sizes are optimally solved by the Lingo software to verify and validate the proposed mathematical model. Also, a sensitivity analysis is performed to analyze the behavior of operators in different production periods.

In this study, joint inventory replenishment planning of an Alibaba distribution system is investigated, which contributes to the circular economy concept. The distribution system includes suppliers, central distribution centers, and front distribution centers. The total replenishment cost of the distribution system can be reduced by setting up distribution centers at producers’ locations (PDCs), which also helps to reduce the wastages of commodities during the transportation and CO2 emission released by transportation. The joint replenishments of multiple products are constrained by a maximum joint replenishment quantity. Trans-shipments happen among different distribution centers. The considered problem seeks to find the replenishment quantities of products among stocks, which can minimize the total replenishment cost of the system, and is formulated as a novel mathematical model. The effectiveness of our proposed model is validated by computational experiments based on Alibaba’s data. The results indicate that PDCs and trans-shipments can bring about lower replenishment costs if a common service level of the system is given.

This article presents a mathematical model for jointly optimizing base stock levels for the multiple items subject to service level goals. The proposed model uses the expected demand and substitution probabilities between products as inputs and has been used to analyze the effects of demand variability on profitability under service level constraint. The results of the analysis demonstrate that neglecting customer-driven substitution or excluding the impacts of variability and correlations in demand leads to significantly inefficient assortments.

Laboratory scale experiments were conducted to develop a mathematical model for the anaerobic digestion of a mixture of night soil and septic tank sludge. The optimum mixing ratio by volume between night soil and septic tank sludge was found to be 7:3. Due to the high solids content in the influent waste, mixed-liquor volatile suspended solids (MLVSS) was not considered to be a proper parameter for biomass concentration, therefore, the active biomass concentration was estimated based on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) concentration in the reactor. The weight ratio between acidogenic bacteria and methanogenic bacteria in the mixed culture of a well-operated anaerobic digester was approximately 3:2. The proposed model indicates that the amount of volatile acid produced and the gas production rate can be expressed as a function of hydraulic residence time (HRT). The kinetic constants of the two phases of the anaerobic digestion process were determined, and a computer was used to simulate results using the proposed model for the various operating parameters, such as BOD5 and volatile acid concentrations in effluent, biomass concentrations and gas production rates. These were consistent with the experimental data.
