Port dynamic empty container reuse
In this paper, empty container movements in the Los Angeles and Long Beach (LA/LB) port area are studied in an effort to reduce congestion by optimizing the empty container reuse. The dynamic empty container reuse is modeled analytically, and techniques are developed to optimize empty container operations. Several case studies based on current and projected demand in the LA/LB port area are use...
متن کاملEmpty Container Reuse in the Los Angeles/Long Beach Port Area
In the Los Angeles/Long Beach (LA/LB) port complex, the empty containers are handled twice; once they are recycled from importers and the second time they are trucked to exporters. Clearly a system, which facilitates the interchange of empties outside the ports, will reduce the traffic congestion and emissions around the ports. In this paper, the deterministic and stochastic empty container reu...
متن کاملSample Average Approximation for Stochastic Empty Container Repositioning
To incorporate uncertainties in empty container repositioning problem, we formulate a two-stage stochastic programming model with random demand, supply, ship weight capacity and ship space capacity. The Sample Average Approximation (SAA) method is applied to approximate the expected value function. Several non-independent and identically distributed sampling schemes are considered to enhance th...
متن کاملThe container shipping network design problem with empty container repositioning
This paper addresses the design of container liner shipping service networks by explicitly taking into account empty container repositioning. Two key and interrelated issues, those of deploying ships and containers are usually treated separately by most existing studies on shipping network design. In this paper, both issues are considered simultaneously. The problem is formulated as a two-stage...
متن کاملA MAS Approach for Port Container Terminal Management
This paper presents a system architecture which is based on the multi-agent system paradigm for solving complex problems. This architecture is applied to solve the port container terminal management problem, and specifically to solve the automatic container allocation. The multi-agent systems paradigm seems to fit this problem due to its inherent complexity. This work is part of a project for t...
