The Project

By BIPOLAR, our main purpose is developing a detailed supply chain blueprint as a knowledge base to see and control its overall value while planning, creating, controlling, managing, optimizing, or even regulating a supply chain. Addition to the business focus, some chains need more attention to involve by means of their suppliers like in the chains of blood diamond or rubber production; some chains need more security to prevent the crime such as in organ trade, narcotics, or human trafficking; some others need more speed to deliver important materials like in emergency situations or natural disasters. Therefore, we need to manage any supply chain efficiently for raising its overall value or decreasing its destruction. We hope that BIPOLAR will be an another tool to create more value for humankind not only in the world but also in space (see our project about the Interstellar Supply Chains).

BIPOLAR is a project about providing an overall understanding of any supply chain. It aims to reveal the most important parts of a chain to the user of it. BIPOLAR has an ontology, SCOM, a markup language, SCML, and a couple of business intelligence tools, BI-T.

SCOM (Supply Chain Management Ontology) is the first part of the BIPOLAR which attempts to create a domain-specific ontology. It includes all ontological properties such as a dictionary, a relationship schema for elements and a logical framework. SCOM also includes ontology diagrams for understanding the concept easily.

SCML (Supply Chain Markup Language) is the second part of the BIPOLAR which attempts to create a markup language based on XML. It includes a coding system (XSCML) and a parser (PARSX). XSCML is an application of XML markup language for describing supply chain elements and capturing both its structure and content. In these pages you'll find some links to documentation and examples, as an addition, XSCML provides support for BIPOLAR by means of SCOM. PARSX is just a parser written in Python to transform SC files to XML files, then XML files to other types (HTML, SVG, PDF).

BI-T (Business Intelligence Tools) combines all BIPOLAR elements into a business intelligence dashboard, SCD. SCD behaves as a decision maker interface for related supply chain and reveals its content for all agents and third parties. It has core abilities to produce web-ready information about the chain and its data. SCD also can do optimization in a scientific sense with well-proofed theories from the SCM literature via OOSC (Overall Optimization of the Supply Chain). Visualization of the Supply Chain, ViSC, is an another important part of the SCD, is provides hands-on experience to create a supply chain by coding.
