Abstract

Applying modern transportation and communication means in the context of inter-enterprises global and local (region-oriented) business collaboration within the Virtual Enterprise is named Virtual Global Production Network (GPN). The new approach for GPN configuration called “Affordable Cost Structure approach” is described. This approach oriented to improve investment efficiency over total facility life-time. A kernel of this approach is a distributed multi-level constraint satisfaction technology based on a shared domain knowledge model “product — process — resources”.
