Modelado de cadenas productivas con dinámica de sistemas
This paper presents a literature review on the topic of modeling productive chains in order to find some answers to questions such as whether the system dynamics is appropriate for modeling productive chains and if it is relevant program models or use specialized software for that purpose.
Initially a brief lecture on the theme of the models and how these can be seen is presented to the reader, showing that even concepts can be contrary to this. Then it presents the system dynamics modeling process to clarify the concepts that the author should include to give an opinion when it comes to choose whether or not the system dynamics modeling as an appropriate strategy. Subsequently some cases are referred in the literature on the use of system dynamics in the representation of supply chains and some theoretical references in this regard and finally, there is a case that illustrates how to model a supply chain by taking the case known as “the beer game” illustrated in the book by Peter Senge, “The Fifth Discipline”.
