Description
Summary:Due to the ever-growing transport demand and the increasing rcgional competition, container port operators nowadays are facing great challenges to stay competitive and relevant to their customers. Effective and efficient management of container terminal operations has therefore becornc one of their main concerns and not surprisingly attracts tremendous research interests. The planning of operations at storage yard, where inbound and outbound container flows are handled simultaneously, determincs the port efficiency to a great extent.
