We consider a variant of the berth allocation problem-i.e., the multi-port berth allocation problem-aimed at assigning berthing times and positions to vessels in container terminals. This variant involves optimizing vessel travel speeds…

This paper is concerned with the container pre-marshalling problem, which involves relocating containers in the storage area so that they can be efficiently loaded onto ships without reshuffles. In reality, however, ship arrival times are…

This paper deals with the resolution of combinatorial optimization problems, particularly those concerning the maritime transport scheduling. We are interested in the management platforms in a river port and more specifically in container…

This paper considers the integrated problem of quay crane assignment, quay crane scheduling, yard location assignment, and vehicle dispatching operations at a container terminal. The main objective is to minimize vessel turnover times and…

Container handling problems at container terminals are NP-hard problems. This paper presents an approach using discrete-event simulation modeling to optimize solution for storage space allocation problem, taking into account all various…

The Container Relocation Problem (CRP) is concerned with finding a sequence of moves of containers that minimizes the number of relocations needed to retrieve all containers, while respecting a given order of retrieval. However, the…

A crucial role of container shipping is maximizing container uptake onto vessels, optimizing the efficiency of a fundamental part of the global supply chain. In practice, liner shipping companies include block stowage patterns that ensure…

The cross dock door design problem consists of deciding on the number and capacity of inbound and outbound doors for receiving product pallets from origin nodes and exiting them to destination nodes. The uncertainty, realized in scenarios,…

Container shipping drives the global economy and is an eco-friendly mode of transportation. A key objective is to maximize the utilization of vessels, which is challenging due to the NP-hardness of stowage planning. This article surveys the…

We introduce a new model and mathematical formulation for planning crane moves in the storage yard of container terminals. Our objective is to develop a tool that captures customer centric elements, especially service time, and helps…

This work studies rearrangement problems involving the sorting of robots or objects in stack-like containers, which can be accessed only from one side. Two scenarios are considered: one where every robot or object needs to reach a…

Various operational optimization problems arise in cross-dock synchronization. The combination of the truck scheduling with other decision problems in cross-docking has been targeted by researchers in the recent years. In most of the truck…

The unrestricted block relocation problem is an important optimization problem encountered at terminals, where containers are stored in stacks. It consists in determining the minimum number of container moves so as to empty the considered…

This paper addresses the two-stocking locations single item non-stationary stochastic lot-sizing problem. The inventory level at each location is reviewed periodically. Items can be reordered and received from a common central warehouse and…

The task of maneuvering ships in confined environments is a difficult task for a human operator. One major reason is due to the complex and slow dynamics of the ship which need to be accounted for in order to successfully steer the vehicle.…

The Container Relocation Problem (CRP) is concerned with finding a sequence of moves of containers that minimizes the number of relocations needed to retrieve all containers respecting a given order of retrieval. While the problem is known…

Research on container loading problems has been proved effective in increasing the filling rate of containers in different practical situations. However, the broader logistic context might pressure the loading process, leading to…

In the era of industry 4.0, procurement in supply chain management is the key to developing information management systems. It directly affects production planning failure. In this case, it is the process to prepare and confirming the…

Cutting and packing problems are present in many, at first glance unconnected, areas, therefore it's beneficial to have a good understanding of their underlying structure, to select proper techniques for finding solutions. Cutting and…

Due to a substantial growth in the world waterborne trade volumes and drastic changes in the global climate accounted for CO2 emissions, the shipping companies need to escalate their operational and energy efficiency. Therefore, a…
