Abstract: Supply chain management and inventory control provide most exciting examples of control systems with delays. Here, Smith predictors, model-free control and new time series forecasting techniques are mixed in order to derive an efficient control synthesis. Perishable inventories are also taken into account. The most intriguing ``bullwhip effect'' is explained and attenuated, at least in some important situations. Numerous convincing computer simulations are presented and discussed.
