摘要
In this paper, the combined problem of berth allocation and crane assignment in container terminals is investigated. The proposed problem formulation includes important real world aspects such as the decrease of marginal productivity of quay cranes assigned to a vessel and the increase in handling time if vessels are not berthed at their desired position at the quay. To solve the problem a construction heuristic, local refinement procedures, and two meta-heuristics are presented. These methods perform well on a set of real world like instances. The results emphasize the important role of quay crane productivity in berth planning. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
