Middle man networkUnderstanding the structure of supply chain in India and the world

What tools are needed?

• Time series analysis. • Building networks: Finding the key nodes and

dynamically the sectors and countries occupying that nodal position.

First work needed:

1. Gathering data of middle man network and supply chain for key sectors. Data has already been collected for several kinds of processed food across big developing and developed countries.

2. Learning network building and graph theory.

• The two aspects need not be done by same members and if we have the right combination people with economics and humanities background can work on 1st and computational people on 2nd.
