This grant is to support the organization of a symposium on the design, analysis and modeling of low carbon footprint supply chains. The symposium will be held over two days in the fall of 2010 at the headquarters of the National Science Foundation (NSF). The Symposium will bring together researchers with backgrounds in Supply Chain Management, Energy, the Environment, Economics, and Public Policy, among others. It will also involve representatives from governmental agencies, non-profit organizations, and industry. Although there is growing interest in industry in minimizing the carbon footprint of supply chains, the research community, particularly in supply chain and operations management, has been noticeably absent from the discussion. Some of the questions that will be addressed in the symposium include:1)How should the carbon footprint of a supply chain be measured and how should it be allocated across the participating firms and across products2)How would various types of regulation and environmental policies affect the design and operation of supply chains? 3)Is it possible to reconcile the needs of cost efficiency, customer responsiveness, system reliability and lower carbon emissions? 4)What analytical methods, computational tools, and data are needed to support the design, planning, and coordination of low carbon emission supply chains?5)How should products be redesigned to support low carbon emission supply chains?6)What data are needed to support the monitoring and analysis of supply chain carbon footprints? Who should collect the data and who should pay for its collection? 7)What impact would product carbon labeling have on consumer choices? What impact would such choices have on decisions made by suppliers? If successful, the symposium will accomplish the following objectives:1)It will create greater awareness of issues surrounding carbon footprint, energy efficiency, and the supply chain.2)It will support the development of a research community that draws from different disciplines around these issues and will support this community in articulating a research agenda. 3)It will encourage collaborations between academic researchers, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and industry in the design, analysis and modeling of low carbon footprint supply chains.

这笔赠款将用于支持组织一个关于低碳足迹供应链设计、分析和建模的研讨会。研讨会将于2010年秋季在美国国家科学基金会（NSF）总部举行，为期两天。研讨会将汇集具有供应链管理，能源，环境，经济和公共政策等背景的研究人员。它还将涉及政府机构、非营利组织和工业界的代表。尽管工业界对最大限度地减少供应链的碳足迹越来越感兴趣，但研究界，特别是供应链和运营管理领域的研究界，显然没有参与讨论。研讨会将讨论的一些问题包括：1）供应链的碳足迹应该如何衡量，以及如何 2）各种类型的法规和环境政策如何影响 供应链的设计和运作？3）是否有可能调和成本效率、客户 响应速度、系统可靠性和更低的碳排放？4)需要哪些分析方法、计算工具和数据来 支持低碳排放的设计、规划和协调 供应链？5)产品应该如何重新设计以支持低碳排放供应 锁链？6)需要哪些数据来支持供应链的监控和分析 碳足迹？ 谁应该收集数据，谁应该为数据付费 收藏？7)产品碳标签对消费者的选择有什么影响？ 什么 这种选择对供应商的决定有何影响？ 如果成功的话，研讨会将实现以下目标：1）它将提高人们对碳足迹问题的认识， 能源效率和供应链。2）它将支持研究社区的发展， 围绕这些问题的不同学科，并将支持这个社区， 明确研究议程。3）它将鼓励学术研究人员，政府和 机构、非政府组织和工业界在设计中， 低碳足迹供应链的分析和建模。
