Visualization of Innovation in Global Supply Chain Networks
提出一种数据驱动的可视化方法，用于研究全球供应链网络中的创新，通过电子行业案例展示其如何揭示传统方法难以发现的集群、模式、趋势和异常值，为管理决策提供可操作的见解。
ABSTRACT This methodological note identifies and describes a data‐driven visualization approach to study innovations in supply chain networks (ISCN). We demonstrate its value and applicability with illustrative examples to pertinent structure‐related ISCN research questions in the global electronics industry. Our visualization approach can be used to reveal and understand important clusters, patterns, trends, and outliers of ISCN not necessarily identified with traditional methods. The broader aim of this note is to demonstrate the complementary value of emerging visual analytic approaches in managerial decision‐making contexts and describe how actionable insights can be achieved.
