A slot assignment method in the container yard for export containers considering their weights

무게를 고려한 수출 컨테이너의 장치위치 결정법

In order to reduce the number of rehandles during the loading operation of export containers in port container terminals, the storage location of each arriving container should be determined considering of its weight. We formulate the problem by a dynamic programming model to get the optimal storage location. And a heuristic rule is suggested in order to overcome computational difficulties of the optimization model. The performance of the rule is evaluated by comparing it with the result of DP model.
