Recent works by Li et al. (2010), Holweg and Pil (2007) have recognized Supply Networks (SNs) as Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS). In this project, we study the evolution of a primitive supply chain using agent based computer simulations with CAS characteristics. By allowing the system to evolve in a...
