One of the most important operational goals in container terminals is to maximize the quay side productivity by minimizing the turnaround times of the vessels, for which the operations of the quay cranes (QC) to load/unload containers onto/from the vessels should be conducted efficiently without delays. This paper suggests using a policy-based dispatching method for YTs (Yard Tractor) that deliver containers between QCs and the storage yard. The goal of using such a dispatching policy is to maximize the efficiency of the YT operation and accordingly to minimize the QC delays because of late arrivals of the YTs. In particular, in this paper, we modified the previously proposed policy for its application to real container terminal and verified the effect through simulation experiments using real terminal data.

In order to construct an efficient monitoring system for major port cities in Korea, the first step to build and manage related laws and institutional infrastructure with strengthen the cooperation of the relevant agencies, regional port authorities, and port corporations. Second, for the management of air pollutants emitted by ports, a management system should be established through systematic inventory source inventory and real-time monitoring system. Third, active countermeasures should be established to reduce the emission of air pollutants by sources such as ships, harbor equipment, and trucks. This will improve the air quality of major port cities and move them to clean port cities.

This paper suggests an example guideline of a safety zone layout for the domestic LNG Truck-To-Ship (TTS) bunkering. The safety zone is one of the controlled area in LNG bunkering and its layout is required as a fundamental safety barrier. While the international standard provides a layout methodology of the safety zone, its detail application is not user-friendly and only possible with a level of the process engineering. In the domestic case, the enforcement regulations are applied for LNG bunkering but the safety zone is not properly defined for TTS operation. Considerations are made for the intuitive approach of the safety zone layout and an example guideline is suggested for application in the domestic TTS bunkering. A technical background of the guideline is described and its applicability is demonstrated with regard to the characteristics of TTS bunkering. The findings of the study are summarized in association with a practical layout of the safety zone, contributing to the safety culture in the domestic LNG bunkering.

In maritime logistics, a large number of containers are transported to the destination through a port in the form of composite transportation such as ships, trucks, and railways. Logistics parties such as shipping companies and consignors prefer having the real-time information on the entry and exit of the logistics hubs of the freight. Particularly, a port is an important space that connects the maritime and inland areas. Hence, the interest about freight of the logistics party in port is high. This study describes tracking the location of freight by using GPS dynamically based on area type rather than point type. This presents dynamic information of location tracking when the freight enters, exits from, and passes through a certain port area. I suggest a real-time location of the container cargos tracking algorithm in port-entry, port-exit, and port inside using Active IP-RFID technology based on the location tracking algorithm of previous research.

This study shows how Incheon will advance into roadmap as multi-transport hub in Northeast Asia hereafter and be proposed an urgent tasks and roles to construct a multi-transportation system for Incheon, which has both an international airport and port. The multi-transportation point of view of inter-major cities competitiveness of total scores was proposed 1. Shanghai(64.8 points), 2 in Hongkong(64.5), 3 in Incheon(62.9), and 4 in Busan(60.4) and Incheon was estimated to have enough competitiveness to be the international multi-transport hub in Northeast Asia. Sea & Air transportation revealed the most important multi-transportation in the Incheon region. In conclusion, this research suggests a development plan for multi-transportation in Incheon. Firstly, it proposes construction of sea & air transportation distribution center and agreement that simplifies logistic process between Incheon and Tianjin, secondly, suggests to activate project for the purpose of creating a better sea-land transportation system between Incheon and Shanghai.

Since ports play a role of gateway to the sea and hinterlands, it is essential to analyse the networks of shipping and inland when evaluating the function and development of a port. The container port of Gwangyang, starting to operate its facilities in 1998, has developed itself as a hub port. Using the data of shipping schedules of Korean ports and the measurement of centrality in sociology, this study analyses the process of world-wide shipping network expansion in Gwangyang and concludes some implications including earlier development of shipping networks due to incentives to shipping companies. Although Gwangyang port also has been expanding its inland network through developing trucking, railway transport, and coastal shipping, it has weakness in inland network as in the cases of interruption in 2004, resumption in 2009 and re-interruption in 2012 at coastal shipping. In 2000s the expansion of shipping and inland networks at the newly built container ports such as Pyungtaek, Ulsan, and Gunsan has enticed the competition among Korean ports at each hinterland. Nevertheless, the operation of Gwangyang container port is considered to affect indirectly the relocation of some manufacturers including Samsung Electronics. Studies on interrelation between development of container port and geographical demography of manufacturers are needed to assess the effects of container port on regional economy.

A recent trend of increasing container traffic volume using reefer container demands continuous management of reefer container in transit. However, reefer containers can only be monitored at terminal or in ship during marine transportation instead of throughout entire section. In the case of inland transportation section using truck or train, monitoring is not possible currently. The reason is because the reefer container monitoring method using PCT recommended by IMO and conventional monitoring methods using TCP/IP, RFID communication require establishing additional communication infrastructure. This paper will propose a new reefer container control device that not only solves these problems and monitors during inland transportation section but also controls reefer container. Using data port attached to every reefer container, the proposed device collects the information of reefer container and using M2M communication technology, it transmits information to server without the need to establish additional communication infrastructure. In addition, it can control the operational status of reefer container upon receiving control information set in server such as temperature of reefer container.
