Abstract:Process flexibility has been widely applied in many industries as a competitive strategy to improve responsiveness to demand uncertainty. In their seminal work, Jordan and Graves proposed an important flexibility concept, called the long chain design, and studied its empirical performance. In this talk, we summarize recent theoretical developments in understanding the effectiveness of the long chain design as well as other sparse flexibility structures.
