This paper deals with a container terminal where containers are discharged by quay cranes from a ship and transported by a fleet of vehicles to the terminal yard. Since container terminals are fully utilized in general, It is important to increase terminal throughput by discharging the containers out of the ship without any delay, At the operational level, it should be decided which vehicle transports which container. The vehicle dispatching decision should be carefully made since the container discharging time increases when the quay cranes wait idle for the vehicles. This paper presents vehicle dispatching heuristics with the objective of minimizing the total container discharging time. The heuristics are based on a network flow model and a look-ahead concept. Through some experiments, the performance of the dispatching methods is evaluated.

Seaports play a vital role in the economic development of countries, especially for countries having long coastlines such as Vietnam Seaport industry in Vietnam has witnessed an impressive development in recent years. The national cargo throughput in the period 2013-2017 achieved a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.8%/year, higher than that of the world (5.1%). However, the differences in planning policies and infrastructure systems has led to the differences in port performance efficiency of regional ports. Therefore, it is necessary to have a general and accurate view of the picture of Vietnam's seaport. The objective of this study was to analyze the relative efficiencies of 26 Vietnam container terminals using traditional output-oriented CCR and BCC DEA model. Malmquist P roductivity Index (MP I) was also applied to evaluate changes in container terminals productivity over time.

Although a number of container terminal simulators have been developed for various purposes, none of the existing simulators allow the system structure to reuse the system structure depending on application. Our goal is to develop highly reusable, highly inter-operable and flexible container terminal simulation system. The High Level Architecture(HLA) is an architecture for reuse and inter-operation of simulation. It is based on premise that no simulation can satisfy all use and users. An individual simulation or set of simulations developed for one purpose can be applied to another application under the HLA concept of the federation : a composable set of interacting simulations. The intent of the HLA is a structure which will support reuse of capabilities available in different simulations, ultimately reducing the cost and time required to create a synthetic environment for a new purpose, and the possibility of distributed collaborative development of complex simulation applications. In this paper, we discuss the design of a HLA-based port container terminal simulation system. Furthermore, we describe various technical motivations for HLA, the key elements of the architecture and how they are minimum and essential to the goal of reuse and interoperability.

Vietnam is one of Asia's fastest developing economies. A long coastline of nearly 3,500 km provides a comparative advantage for Vietnam in developing a seaport system. Despite accounting for only about 30% of Vietnam's traffic volume, the Northern seaports have rapidly developed over the years. However, the location of the container terminals close to the common hinterland are a cause of fierce competition among container terminals. To outperform rivals and improve competitiveness, it is essential to identify the competitive positions of container terminals. This study analyzes the competitive positioning of container terminals in the northern region of Vietnam between 2005 and 2014 by applying the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) matrix in order to assist terminal operators and policy makers to generate strategic planning as well as to improve priorities for development. Otherwise, the period from 2005-2014 aims to clarify the static and dynamic positioning of container terminals. The results demonstrate that the Hai Phong terminal dominates the market, but the Nam Hai Dinh Vu and Dinh Vu terminals are considered as "star" performers. Quang Ninh, Doan Xa, and Transvina are losing their competitive positions in Northern Vietnam.

After World Trade Center's Terror in 2001 and promulgating Maritime Transportation Security Act (MTSA, 2002) and Security and Accountability For Every Port Act (SAFE Port Act, 2006) in the United States, most of the attention on security of international transportation including marine carrier and facility has focused increasingly. Inspection stations in foreign seaport terminal including Busan, South Korea, have been installed by Container Security Initiative (CSI) and Customs Trade Partnership against Terrorism (C-TPAT). The inspection station, however, may directly and indirectly affect delay of truck turnaround time in the seaport, especially high and severe level of security. This paper was analysed a risk for the additional average delay of truck turnaround time incurring by the inspection station under the all level of security, C-TPAT and CSI. As a result of this risk analysis, the higher weighted inspection time based on raising security level, the less number of trucks to be inspected, which will derive high delay in the inspection station.

We conduct an empirical study on RFID application to a real container terminal gate. The objective of this study is three-fold. The first is to design a new gate management process that applies RFID technology. For this purpose, we analyze current gate management process to find opportunities for improvement. The second is to verify the 433 and 900 MHz RFID technology in terms of the recognition rate of information contained in RFID tag under various conditions such as the speed of vehicle, the position of RFID tag and the tilt of RFID reader. We perform some experimental tests for this verification. Finally, we try to find suitable conditions for the speed of vehicle, the position of RFID tag and the tilt of RFID tag reader based on results of the experimental tests. Those findings are obtained with some ANOVA tests. Additionally, we summarize anticipated issues when applying RFID technology to the gate management process and possible solutions for the issues.

본 논문에서는 동북아시아 24개 컨테이너항만들의 4년간 자료(2009년-2012년)를 이용하여 5개의 투입요소(겐트리 크레인 수, 선석 수, 총 선석길이, 터미널면적, 평균수심), 2개의 산출요소(컨테이너화물처리량, 직기항 선사수)를 이용하여 항만효율성 측정 시 AR가중치를 부여하는 방법(다중회귀분석방법과 AHP방법)을 실증적으로 검증하였다. 즉, AHP/DEA-AR분석 결과에 대해서, 다중회귀분석방법으로 AR을 결정하고 항만들의 효율성을 측정한 후에 항만들 간의 순위를 이용하여 윌콕슨부호순위검정과 Mann-Whitney 윌콕슨 순위 합 검정방법으로 그 결과를 비교분석하여 검증하였다. 실증분석의 주요한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 측정한 순위를 근거로 윌콕슨부호순위검정을 실시한 결과 P값(유의확율)이 유의수준 0.05보다 훨씬 더 크게 나타났으므로, 귀무가설 Ho는 채택하였다. 즉, AHP/DEA-AR모형에 의한 효율성 순위와 다중회귀분석에서 도출된 AR을 이용한 효율성분석에 의한 순위에는 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. Mann-Whitney 윌콕슨 순위 합 검정도 동일한 결과를 보였다. 둘째, 평균적으로 보았을 때, 윌콕슨 부호순위검정에서 P값(유의확율)이 평균 0.845 수준에서 양 모형의 효율성 수치에 의한 순위가 서로 일치함을 보여 주었으며, Mann-Whitney 윌콕슨 순위 합 검정의 평균유의확율은 0.963으로 더 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 전체자료를 한꺼번에 고려하여 측정한 경우에는 윌콕슨부호순위검정에서 상대적으로 유의확율이 크게 낮아(0.845->0.694)졌으며, Mann-Whitney 윌콕슨 순위 합 검정도 낮아(0.963->0.925)졌다. 본 논문의 정책적인 함의는 항만운영자들이나 항만정책의 입안가들이 항만들에 대한 효율성을 측정할 때, 본 논문에서 제시한 AR가중치를 적용한 방법을 도입하여 시행함으로써 보다 정확한 항만효율성을 측정할 수 있어야만 한다는 점이다. 또한 더욱 확장시켜서 AHP법과 다중회귀분석방법을 접목한 방법을 도입하여 측정해야만 한다는 점이다. 항만투자금액을 결정할 때, 그러한 측정결과도 참고한다면 효과적인 항만관리 및 정책이 시행될 수 있을 것으로 확신한다. 본 논문의 한계는 퍼지분석법, 비방사적 DEA분석을 도입하지 못했으며, 그리고 AHP법과 다중회귀분석방법을 혼합한 측정결과를 제시하지 못했다는 점이다. 차후연구에서 다루고자 한다.

Despite the significance of ports as critical economic infrastructure, the berth facilities usually deteriorate due to heavy loading, unloading, aging, environmental weather conditions, marine growths, and lack of efficient maintenance management. Marine berths require proactive maintenance management to limit deterioration and defects as no berth facility is maintenance-free. Thus, delay in carrying out maintenance work for the marine berths can be devastating to the operational process involving ship entry, loading, and unloading operations. The aim of this research is to coordinate both operations work, and maintenance works that take place inside the berth of a local industrial port in Saudi Arabia, by developing a novel framework that integrates both works without affecting the efficiency and functionality of the berth. The study focused on defining the operational process of the port and identifying the elements with direct and indirect effects. In addition to determining the priority for the entry of ships inside the berth, it also identified the factors involved in designing a framework that included maintenance work as a component of the monthly berth occupancy schedule. By applying a mathematical model, a framework was established, which includes all the important elements of the process. As a result of the mathematical method formulation process, a database was designed that organizes and coordinates the operations of all berths within the port. This creates time to carry out the required maintenance work monthly as well as ease of coordination with the contractors responsible for the implementation of those works.
