• Abstract: Trade disruptions, the pandemic, and the Ukraine war over the past years have adversely affected global supply chains, revealing their vulnerability. Autonomous supply chains are an emerging topic that has gained attention in industry and academia as a means of increasing their monitoring and robustness. While many theoretical frameworks exist, there is only sparse work to facilitate generalisable technical implementation. We address this gap by investigating multi-agent system approaches for implementing autonomous supply chains, presenting an autonomous economic agent-based technical framework. We illustrate this framework with a prototype, studied in a perishable food supply chain scenario, and discuss possible extensions.

  This paper presents a novel framework leveraging Knowledge Graphs (KGs) and Large Language Models (LLMs) to enhance supply chain visibility. Our zero-shot, LLM-driven approach automates the extraction of supply chain information from diverse public sources. With high accuracy in NER and RE tasks, it provides an effective tool for understanding complex, multi-tiered supply networks.

  Counterfeit products cause severe harm to public safety and health by penetrating supply chains. Numerous anti-counterfeiting techniques have been proposed, among which the use of inherent, unclonable irregularities of paper surfaces has shown considerable potential as a high-performance economical solution. This work aims to systematically unify these two separate but connected research areas by comprehensively analyzing the needs of supply chains.

• Evaluating Supply Chain Resilience During Pandemic Using Agent-based Simulation [0.8158530638728501]
  Future pandemics raise a dilemma for businesses owners between short-term profitability and long-term supply chain resilience planning. We propose a novel agent-based simulation model integrating extended Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) epidemiological model and supply and demand economic model. We find that a balanced approach to supply chain resilience performs better in both pandemic and non-pandemic times compared to extreme strategies.

  Weak Supervision (WS) frameworks synthesize training labels from multiple potentially noisy supervision sources. We formulate Weak Indirect Supervision (WIS), a new research problem for automatically synthesizing training labels. We develop a probabilistic modeling approach, PLRM, which uses user-provided label relations to model and leverage indirect supervision sources.

  Agent-based supply chains have been proposed since early 2000; industrial uptake has been lagging. We find that agent-based technology has matured, and other supporting technologies that are penetrating supply chains are filling in gaps. For example, the ubiquity of IoT technology helps agents "sense" the state of affairs in a supply chain and opens up new possibilities for automation.
