Novel wharf-based genetic algorithm for berth allocation planning

TL;DR: A wharf-based genetic algorithm is proposed for the scheduling of public berths with the aim of reducing reliance on communications and shortening the waiting time of vessels, which performs nine times faster in terms of convergence speed and produces better quality of the solutions.

Nonlinear mathematical programming for optimal management of container terminals

TL;DR: This paper attempts to minimize the serving time to ships, after introducing a proposed mathematical model, considers the berth allocation problem in form of mixed integer nonlinear programming, and indicates that the number of nonlinear variables in the proposed model is less than prior model.

Modelo matemático para o Problema de Alocação de Berços em portos com limitações de operação de carga ao longo do cais

TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model for the continuous berthing allocation problem was proposed, which considers that some cargos can be operated only in specific segments of the pier and used real data from the Companhia Portuaria de Vila Velha (CPVV) to evaluate the model.
