Citations in the corpus
- Customers’ Risk Factor Disclosures and Suppliers’ Investment Efficiency (2019, background): “Forrester (1958) first identifies the supply chain’s natural tendency to amplify demand information and names it the “bullwhip” effect.”
- Introduction to Energy Systems Modelling (2012, methodology): “The modelling concept of System Dynamics (SD) was developed by Forrester (1958, 1962, 1971, 1980) in the 1950s at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and used to analyse the long-term behaviour of social systems like large industrial companies or entire cities.”
- Information sharing with key suppliers : a transaction cost theory perspective (2010, background): “The presence of demand uncertainty and the lack of information sharing in the supply chain can lead to a problem known as the bullwhip effect: the amplification of demand variability as orders move up the supply chain (Forrester, 1958; Lee et al., 1997).”
- Assessing the long-term effects of autonomous vehicles: a speculative approach (2016, methodology): “As a tool to investigate effects of vehicle automation on a systems level, we have chosen to use system dynamics, an approach used to analyze complex, dynamic systems (Forrester, 1958).”
- Returns and the bullwhip effect (2013, background): “As stated earlier, Forrester (1958, 1961) is generally credited as originating research into demand variance amplification. Forrester (1958) uses what is essentially a forerunner of the system dynamics approach (pioneered by Forrester), to build a model of a four-node supply chain.”
