Abstract
Virtualization of a supply chain is a basis for constructing a Cyber-Physical System (CPS) for a smart supply chain. Total optimization and furthermore autonomous optimization of the supply chain will become possible using this CPS system. Models of component enterprises are divided into three types: manufacturer model, part/material supplier model and retailer model, and models are cataloging based on these types. Each enterprise is modeled in terms of its behavior. Each component enterprise agent which shows each enterprise’s behavior, is implemented from selected enterprise models in catalogues. An enterprise model is constructed as integrated model of data model and mathematical model. A virtual supply chain is structured as a multi agent system based on balanced cooperation of enterprise agents. A virtual supply chain which is automatically structured using enterprise catalogue, could be used to simulate the various phases including negotiation between enterprises.
