Abstract:
Automated container terminals are more efficient than conventional terminals, as they lead to a remarkable decrease in the operational costs of human and equipment resources. However, since there is a lack in labor interference in the Automated Container Terminals (ACTs) as the equipment is controlled automatically, detailed scheduling and efficient planning of each piece of equipment is crucial to smoothly perform the various operations. Therefore, this paper proposes a Mixed Integer Programing model to consider the integrated schedule of Quay Cranes (QCs), Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Yard Cranes (YCs) to minimize the total waiting time of QCs and the number of needed AGVs, also the storage locations of import containers are determined.
