This contribution presents a simulation model that generates arrivals of ships over time at a container terminal. The model includes a quay of limited capacity, a decision module for assigning berths to ships, and a queue for ships for which currently no berth is available. Such models are...

The subject of this paper is a method of evaluating costs and performance of containerships as means of transport in the main part of the intermodal transport chain for ISO containers. The reason for doing so is the continuous development in size of containerships and the infrastructure...

In this paper, we propose a general model for various scheduling problems that occur in container terminal logistics. The scheduling model consists of the assignment of jobs to resources and the temporal arrangement of the jobs subject to precedence constraints and sequence-dependent setup...

This paper introduces an approach for generating scenarios of sea port container terminals. A scenario consists of arrivals of deep sea vessels, feeder ships, trains, and trucks together with lists of containers to be loaded and unloaded. Moreover, container attributes such as size, empty,...
