This paper seeks to illustrate the ability of the graph theoretic cell transmission model (GT-CTM), previously developed by the authors, to address some dynamic supply chain management (SCM) problems with congestion phenomena using a simple graphical representation. It further shows the conceptual equivalence between SCM and dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) problems using the GT-CTM framework. Thereby, the GT-CTM provides a generalized modeling framework to address dynamic network problems with congestion phenomena.
