A case study of the centralised and decentralised MCA in West Lombok is presented, and the process of establishing the MCA and its institutional performance are reviewed. The performance of a centralised system is still questioned because this system marginalises the local people that leads to the...
When the system is centralised, we directly model the decision problem into a Markov decision process. A numerical example shows that the cost of the centralised distribution system is about 40% lower than the cost of the decentralised system. Furthermore, some properties of the costs are ...
In this paper, an integrated inventory model for optimal lot sizing and inventory decisions for centralised and decentralised supply chain with a single customer and single supplier considering ordering/setup costs, carrying costs and transportation costs of respective entities has been developed. The ...
centralisation and decentralisation forces so as to understand how schools leverage on its autonomous pedagogical space, influence the diffusion of innovations in the educational landscape of Singapore and how a centralised-decentralised system supports (or impedes) pedagogical reform for twenty-first ...
