The area of maritime transportation optimization has recently begun to achieve increasing
success at solving large scale models, and industry is steadily adopting operations research …

We consider an integrated berth allocation and quay crane assignment and scheduling
problem where the arrival times of the vessels may be affected by uncertainty. The problem …

We review recent literature pertaining to the maritime inventory routing problem (MIRP), a
stimulating, albeit niche, subclass of vendor‐managed inventory problems. MIRPs deal with …

Abstract The Maritime Inventory Routing Problem (MIRP) has gained attention in
combinatorial optimization in the last decades. The problem has several variations, mostly …

We consider a single product maritime inventory routing problem in which the production
and consumption rates are constant over the planning horizon. The problem involves a …

This paper introduces and studies shipment planning and safety stock placement in bulk
and semi-bulk maritime supply chains. This problem jointly optimizes the assignment of …

This paper considers a multi-product maritime inventory routing problem in which the routes
of the vessels are determined while inventories in the ports must remain within given …

This work addresses uncertain sailing times and uncertain waiting times at ports in a
maritime inventory routing problem (MIRP). As the probability distribution of these uncertain …

Uncertainty is inherent in many planning situations. One example is in maritime
transportation, where weather conditions and port occupancy are typically characterized by …

Maritime inventory routing problems involve determining optimal routes for seagoing vessels
between ports while managing the inventory of each port. Normally, such problems are …
