Robust berth scheduling with uncertain vessel delay and handling time

Y Xu, Q Chen, X Quan - Annals of Operations Research, 2012 - Springer
In container terminals, the actual arrival time and handling time of a vessel often deviate
from the scheduled ones. Being the input to yard space allocation and crane planning, berth …

Berth allocation with time-dependent physical limitations on vessels

D Xu, CL Li, JYT Leung - European Journal of Operational Research, 2012 - Elsevier
We consider a berth allocation problem in container terminals in which the assignment of
vessels to berths is limited by water depth and tidal condition. We model the problem as a …
