Nowadays, many industries rely on cranes for efficiently executing storage and retrieval
operations of goods. Areas of application are, for instance, container logistics in seaports …

This paper examines the problem of scheduling multiple yard cranes to perform a given set
of jobs with different ready times in a yard zone with only one bi-directional travelling lane …

With the proliferation of multi-gantry automated stacking cranes, the already difficult crane
scheduling problem in container terminals has become even more challenging. In this paper …

In this paper, we examine crane scheduling for ports. This important component of port
operations management is studied when the non-crossing spatial constraint, which is …

This paper treats the crane scheduling in a container port where two cooperative gantry
cranes (denoted as twin cranes) jointly store import containers arriving from the seaside in a …

The quay crane scheduling problem consists of scheduling tasks for loading and unloading
containers on cranes that are assigned to a vessel for its service. This article introduces a …

The quay crane scheduling problem studied in this paper is to determine a handling
sequence of holds for quay cranes assigned to a container vessel considering interference …

The quay crane scheduling problem consists of determining a sequence of unloading and
loading movements for cranes assigned to a vessel in order to minimize the vessel …

In this work, we examine port crane scheduling with spatial and separation constraints.
Although common to most port operations, these constraints have not been previously …

Maritime transportation is an important branch of intelligent transportation system (ITS). It is
widely recognized that modern ITS technologies and advanced management methods, such …
