Research on Scheduling the Containers between Container Storage Station and Container Terminal

摘要

In order to effectively improve the efficiency and service level of port logistics, aiming to the scheduling of containers between container storage station and container terminal, this paper first develops a multi-objective scheduling model which attempts to minimize the wait time of ships in port and balance the load of the related logistics resource. Then, a discrete adaptive artificial colony algorithm is proposed to solve this model. Finally, a case study is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and algorithm.
