This paper surveys recent publications on berth allocation, quay crane assignment, and
quay crane scheduling problems in seaport container terminals. It continues the survey of …

This paper is a comprehensive literature review of Biased Random-Key Genetic Algorithms
(BRKGA). BRKGA is a metaheuristic that employs random-key-based chromosomes with …

Improving container ports' operational efficiency to reduce the delays at ports concerns
global port operators significantly. Optimizing the tactical level allocation of quay side and …

The performance of a container terminal heavily relies on how efficiently the quayside
resources, which are mainly berth and quay cranes, are used. The quayside related …

This paper focuses on the integrated berth allocation and quay crane assignment problem in
container terminals. We consider the decrease in the marginal productivity of quay cranes …

This study examines the simultaneous allocation of berths and quay cranes under discrete
berth situations with uncertainty at container terminals. First, a mixed-integer programming …

Container terminals play a vital role as representative logistic facilities for contemporary
trade by handling outbound, inbound, and transshipment containers to and from the sea and …

This study examines the berth allocation problem with the consideration of uncertainty
factors, including the arrival and operation times of the calling vessels. A bi-objective robust …

This study investigates an integrated optimization problem on the three main types of
resources used in container terminals: berths, quay cranes, and yard storage space. It …

This paper proposes a multi-port berth allocation problem (MPBAP) under a cooperative
environment, which aims to determine berthing times and berthing positions for all …
