The seaport of Gioia Tauro is the largest transshipment terminal of the Mediterranean Sea. A crucial management task for the companies operating in the seaport is team building: the problem of properly allocating the available personnel for serving the incoming boats. Teams have to be carefully arranged in order to meet several constraints such as: availability of employees and their skills, co...

We present a decision model designed to help policy-makers understand the disruptive impact of temporary closures of a container seaport on the supply chains that it supports. Such closures may have numerous possible causes, but security-related disruptions are of particular relevance today. Importantly, temporary closures result in highly variable product delivery leadtimes, increasing invento...

This study aimed to determine the readiness level of the studied seaport’ managers for Establishment of Total Quality management (hereinafter referred to as TQM). Thus because all of the ports are of trading kind so they are considered as a servicing organization and due to optimizing the research, the TQM principles such as commitment, customers focus, pragmatism, employee involvement, trainin...

Abstract Ecoport management is a port trend around the world. Unfortunately, Indonesia has not implemented it properly and focus only on performance of ship services loading unloading services. Tanjung Intan Seaport as that continues to grow, ecoport management? Is ship’s service optimal? This research objective area: (1) knowing analyzing at Seaport. (2) Seaport; (3) The results show consisten...

The ability to simulate a seaport environment, including illicit cargo and the sensors designed to detect such cargo, allows the evaluation of alternative detection methods in order to improve security at our nation’s seaports. We describe our progress towards this goal. Specifically, we describe our modeling of threats at a particle emission level, modeling of sensors as particle detectors, mo...

Seaports have a very important role in connecting freight by sea. Goods transported through seaports the world are increasing day to meet human needs. This increases pressure apply more technologies for better port management. The world's 4th generation, generation which enhance connectivity form large network, shown high efficiency when applying technology optimizes operations and connects inf...

Seaport monitoring and management is a significant research area, in which infrastructure automatically collects big data sets that lead the organization in its multiple activities. Thus, this problem is heavily related to the fields of data acquisition, transfer, storage, big data analysis and information visualization. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria port is a good example of how a seaport generat...

The aim of this work is to propose a (max, +) optimization model for scheduling transfer operations on a flow network within a given maintenance framework. The case study involves the scheduling of oil batch transfer operations in coordination with valve maintenance activities in an oil-exporting seaport. The optimum schedule is determined through an intuitive, and synthetized mathematical mode...

Distribution network design as a strategic decision has long-term effect on tactical and operational supply chain management. In this research, a supply chain design problem based on a two level capacity location allocation problem (TLCLAP) is presented. A product must be transported from a set of seaport to meet stores demands, passing out by intermediate warehouses. The objective is to locate...

Dawei deep seaport in a part of the Dawei Special Economic Zone (Dawei SEZ) in Myanmar aims to support the new economics along the GMS Southern Corridor. The Dawei seaport can serve the potential new industries along the new industry zones. The new port will be the alternative route for Thai exporters in the future as it is under construction. The exploratory study by employing survey was selec...
