Blockchain Technology as an Enabler of Service Systems: A Structured Literature Review (2017, background): “An example for this may be seen in a supply chain setting, where it may seem beneficial for an individual to keep information for themselves, but sharing information would lead to an improvement of the overall system (see Bullwhip effect) [50].”
Revisit of AAA Excellence of Global Value Chains: Robustness, Resilience, and Realignment (2020, unknown): “More recently, inﬂuential work on our understanding of the industrial impact of bullwhip phenomena, and on potential new causes for it, appeared in an empirical literature stream (see Bray and Mendelson (2012) for a quick overview of the relevant literature).”
