A mathematical formulation and efficient heuristics for the dynamic container relocation problem
TL;DR: This work focuses on an extension of the CRP to the case where containers are both received and retrieved from a single yard‐bay, and calls it the dynamic container relocation problem, and proposes three types of heuristic methods: index based heuristics,Heuristics using the binary IP formulation, and a beam search heuristic.

A note on a dynamic space-allocation method for outbound containers
Kap Hwan Kim,Kang Tae Park +1 more
TL;DR: This paper discusses how to allocate storage space for outbound containers that will arrive at a storage yard and two heuristic algorithms are suggested based on the duration-of-stay of containers and the sub-gradient optimization technique, respectively.
