The Bullwhip Effect in Supply Chains

The bullwhip effect describes a common supply chain phenomenon where small fluctuations in customer demand lead to increasingly larger order variations as they propagate upstream. First introduced by Jay Forrester in the 1950s, the concept gained prominence in supply chain management during the 1980s and 1990s.

This effect arises when a retailer observes a slight increase

Secure and Trusted Data Exchange in the Semiconductor Ecosystem

29. Januar 2025

One of the undisputed learnings of the recent chip market turmoil is, that to soften the blow for the inevitable next crisis, participants in the semiconductor value chain have to bring intercompany collaboration to a new level. However, the trust barrier amongst semiconductor manufacturers and suppliers is high, and security concerns are

How Multi-Party Computation strengthens the industry’s resilience

24. Januar 2025

The industry is a very complex and also extremely sensitive system. Seemingly small changes may lead to a huge impact elsewhere, as it is already well-understood for the bullwhip effect, for example. Having access to certain information is key in decision-making and often companies would benefit from exchanging data about their business with each other.
