    Enterprise Application Integration (EAI), Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and their relevance to e-supply chain formation
    (Academic Journals, 2010) Rehan, Mohammad; Akyuz, Goknur Arzu; Information Systems Engineering; Industrial Engineering
    The greatest challenge of e-supply chain formation is the integration of cross-application processes in a seamless manner. As platform independent, web-based interoperability are becoming key issues in web-based integration and supply chain formation, organisations are in search of architectural solutions to overcome these challenges. Thus, this paper focuses on the service oriented architectures (SOA) as the recent trend in cross-platform enterprise application integration. SOA paradigm is discussed in detail with special focus on e-supply chain formation. Findings indicate that SOA still appears as the most convenient paradigm to meet the challenges of today's e-supply chain formation requirements.

    A Generic, Cloud-Based Representation for Supply Chains (SC's)
    (Igi Global, 2013) Akyuz, Goknur Arzu; Rehan, Mohammad; Information Systems Engineering; Industrial Engineering
    As a very recent IT paradigm, Cloud Computing is gaining momentum and receiving more and more interest in literature. With various characteristics such as offering flexibility, cost reductions, platform independence and on-demand service, cloud approach opens up tremendous opportunities from Supply Chain (SC) perspective. However, extant literature reveals that adoption and assimilation of the technology is not mature in SC domain and cloud-based modelling initiatives are only recent. To fill this gap, this study discusses the opportunities of cloud computing from SC perspective and proposes a generic representation based on cloud philosophy. The proposed representation is conceptual, flexible and customizable, utilizing and highlighting the cloud benefits in a multi-partner setting. Therefore, this article is an answer to the research questions: "what are the opportunities of cloud philosophy for SC domain?" and "how can supply chains be represented generically based on cloud technology in multi-actor environment?". Contribution of this study lies in comprehensive treatment of cloud computing and supply chain intersection as well as the generic representation.

    A Generic, Multi-Period and Multi-Partner Cost Optimizing Model for Cloud-Based Supply Chain
    (Igi Global, 2016) Akyuz, Goknur Arzu; Rehan, Mohammad; Information Systems Engineering; Industrial Engineering
    Cloud technology in a multi-enterprise, collaborative context is one of the most promising topics at IT-Supply Chain (SC) intersection. Cloud comes with well-proven advantages and cost savings; enabling collaboration and business intelligence. Cloud transition is still on-going with individual enterprise-level transitions. However, collaborative paradigm dictates that entire network well-being is to be considered over enterprise-level concerns. Thus, handling the transition of a single enterprise is not sufficient for strategic network leverage. Planning and managing across multiple enterprises is required, taking into consideration various cost items and budget constraints. In this study, a multi-period multi-partner cost-optimizing model is developed for network-level management of cloud transition for a SC. The model produces an optimal transition plan, indicating timing of the transition for each partner to obtain the maximum cost savings across network over a specified planning horizon. The model proposed is generic, flexible and customizable for different sectors/settings.

    Requirements for forming an 'e-supply chain'
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2009) Akyuz, Goknur Arzu; Rehan, Mohammad; Information Systems Engineering; Industrial Engineering
    In today's digital economy, web-based integration of the enterprises to form an e-supply chain is a critical weapon for orchestrating the whole supply chain towards competitiveness. This paper intends to discuss the requirements for forming an e-supply chain from different perspectives, such as integration with the legacy systems, timing and prior presence of ERP (enterprise resources planning) systems, BPR (business process re-engineering) needs of internal and external business processes and business intelligence/decision support needs. A look at technical knowledge and structure to construct an e-supply chain is provided. Challenges involved in forming an e-supply chain are also briefly mentioned as a separate section in this paper. During the study, requirements are gathered by making a review of recent literature.

    Supply chain performance measurement: a literature review
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010) Akyuz, Goknur Arzu; Erkan, Turan Erman; Industrial Engineering
    This paper is intended to provide a critical literature review on supply chain performance measurement. The study aims at revealing the basic research methodologies/approaches followed, problem areas and requirements for the performance management of the new supply chain era. The review study covers articles coming from major journals related with the topic, including a taxonomy study and detailed investigation as to the methodologies, approaches and findings of these works. The methodology followed during the conduct of this research includes starting with a broad base of articles lying at the intersection of supply chain, information technology (IT), performance measurement and business process management topics and then screening the list to have a focus on supply chain performance measurement. Findings reveal that performance measurement in the new supply era is still an open area of research. Further need of research is identified regarding framework development, empirical cross-industry research and adoption of performance measurement systems for the requirements of the new era, to include the development of partnership, collaboration, agility, flexibility, information productivity and business excellence metrics. The contribution of this study lies in the taxonomy study, detailed description and treatment of methodologies followed and in shedding light on future research.
