Flow Coordination and Information Sharing in Supply Chains: Review, Implications, and Directions for Future Research (2002, background): “For example, Federgruen and Zipkin (1984) illustrate that by constructing cost functions appropriately, a decentralized system can perform as well as a centralized one for some multi-echelon systems.”
Log-concave probability and its applications (2004, background): “From the principal’s point of view the agent’s type is a random variable, with distribution function, F . It is standard to assume, as do Laffont and Tirole [23] or Corbett and de Groote [ 14 ] that F is log-concave.”
Optimal Contract Design for Mixed Channels Under Information Asymmetry (2008, background): “Corbett and de Groote (2000) derive an optimal discount policy for both full and incomplete information cases.”
Supply Chain Coordination with Contracts (2003, background): “16 Chen (1999) also raises the issue of robustness to irrational ordering. While this is an intriguing idea, it is di¢cult to construct any theory based on irrational behavior. Maybe a better interpretation is that shocks occur in the system that are only observable to one member. For example, while”
The Impact of Information Sharing on Supply Chain Performance under Asymmetric Information (2013, background): “There is an extensive theoretical literature on screening contracts in supply chain management (see e.g., Corbett 2001, Corbett and de Groote 2000, Corbett et al. 2004, Ha 2000).”
Buyer vendor coordination models in supply chain management (2006, methodology): “Dolan (1978) formalizes Crowther s argument by specifying quantity discount as a mechanism for inducing the buyer to purchase in quantities minimizing the system cost. The idea of joint optimization for buyer and vendor was initiated by Goyal (1976) and later reinforced by Bannerjee (1986a).”
Supply contracts in manufacturer‐retailer interactions with manufacturer‐quality and retailer effort‐induced demand (2008, background): “Other research in this stream examines the role of a variety of mechanisms to improve supply chain efficiency including buy-back agreements [26], quantity commitment contracts [1], quantity discount contracts [5], information sharing [13], and revenue sharing [2, 4, 14].”
