Quay Crane Allocation of Container Terminal Based on Cluster Analysis

摘要

Quay crane allocation is one of the most important scheduling plans in the container terminal. A large of production data is stored in the database of the terminal. This paper utilizes the method of data mining to analyze the problem of quay crane allocation by using these data. From the mining, valuable information has been gotten from the database. The paper chooses the fuzzy c-means cluster algorithms to study the data of quay crane allocation in database. Data mining model of quay crane allocation has been designed by learning plan of quay crane in order to improve the production efficiency of container terminals. And the case study shows that the method using in the paper is effective.
