Heuristics for the Integration of Crane Productivity in the Berth Allocation Problem
Frank Meisel,Christian Bierwirth +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the combined problem of berth allocation and crane assignment in container terminals, which includes important real world aspects such as the decrease of marginal productivity of quay cranes assigned to a vessel and the increase in handling time if vessels are not berthed at their desired position at the quay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling and Solving the Tactical Berth Allocation Problem
TL;DR: In this article, a heuristic algorithm which combines tabu search methods and mathematical programming techniques is proposed to solve the problem of berth assignment and quay crane assignment in container terminals, which aims to maximize the total value of chosen QC profiles and minimize the housekeeping costs generated by transshipment flows between ships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Berth Allocation at Indented Berths for Mega-containerships
TL;DR: A new integer linear programming formulation is constructed for easier calculation and extended to model the berth allocation problem at a terminal with indented berths, where both mega-containerships and feeder ships are to be served for higher berth productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variable neighborhood search for minimum cost berth allocation
TL;DR: A Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) heuristic is proposed and outperforms MS, MA and GA on large instances and provides optimal solutions for all instances solved to optimality in a previous paper of the first two authors.

An Integrated Model for Berth Template and Yard Template Planning in Transshipment Hubs
Lu Zhen,Ek Peng Chew,Loo Hay Lee +2 more
TL;DR: A mixed-integer programming model is proposed to integrate the berth template and the yard template planning with the aim to minimize the service cost that is incurred by the deviation from vessels' expected turnaround time intervals, and the operation cost related to the route length of transshipment container flows in yard.

Efficient planning of berth allocation for container terminals in Asia
TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm is presented to identify non-inferior solutions to the berth allocation problem, which minimizes the sum of port staying times of ships and minimizes dissatisfaction of the ships in terms of the berthing order.
