This week I finally finished the first complete version of my dissertation. All graphs and tables now are now built using the same template and I finally decided on the final typeface: For the main texts it’s Gyre Bonum which is built on the Bookman typeface) and for the headlines I choose Bera Serif a nice slab serif font.

Week 11, one fifth of 2012 is already gone and there is even less time until the end of the world, I just hope this will not effect supply chains for the holidays too much…
I did find some interesting articles, so have a look and let me know what you think on Twitter.

I like this hour. Preparing this blog post. Once a week I go through all my collected news items and articles I wanted to read for the whole week and finally I have the chance. Usually I have to skim another 50 or more articles to find some which have really reveal news or insights which interest me.
I hope this weeks selection fits your interest as well!

I hope you had a good week. My simulation model gets its final touches, so that all my scenarios run smoothly and (hopefully) produce some interesting results.
Last week I started with some basic supply chain scenarios like serial, convergent and divergent — and I liked the results. The next step will be to include some more demanding structures. First will be a consumer goods supply chain as highlighted here in the blog.
