This paper investigates a novel extension of the berth allocation problem (BAP), which
mainly determines berths and times for arriving vessels. Most previous studies on the BAP …

In this paper, we present a mathematical model and a solution approach for the discrete
berth scheduling problem, where vessel arrival and handling times are not known with …
