SOLVING OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH MARITIME FACILITY ON OPTIMIZATION SOLVER MACHINES

摘要

According to an aspect of an embodiment, operations include receiving a layout of a maritime facility and a first input including a vehicle count associated with a fleet of transport vehicles on the maritime facility. The operations further include determining a weighted graph representation of the maritime facility based on the received layout and generating a Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) formulation based on the weighted graph representation and the received first input. The operations further include submitting the generated QUBO formulation to a first optimization solver machine and receiving a first solution of the submitted QUBO formulation. The operations further include determining a set of paths to be traversed by the fleet of transport vehicles on the maritime facility for transporting the plurality of shipping containers to respective destination locations based on the received first solution.
