We model each company as an intelligent agent to study the ``bullwhip effect'', that is, the amplifcation of the variability in orders placed by companies. This phenomenon can also be seen as a particular case of stream fluctuations in a distributed system. Such fluctuations incur costs due to higher inventory levels and supply chain agility reduction. This cost has been estimated at 40-60 million USD for a 300 kton paper mill. Since the bullwhip effect is due to a lack of coordination, we propose two principles that any coordination mechanism should respect: (i) ordering what is ordered from us eliminates the bullw...
