In this paper we integrate two decision problems arising in container terminals: the berth allocation problem, which consists of assigning and scheduling incoming ships to berthing positions, and the quay crane assignment problem, which assigns to incoming ships a certain QC profile (i.e. number of quay cranes per working shift). They are indeed strictly correlated, as the QC profile assigned t...

In this research we study the berth allocation problem (BAP) in real time as disruptions occur. In practice, the actual arrival times and handling times of the vessels deviate from their expected or estimated values, which can disrupt the original berthing plan and potentially make it infeasible. We consider a given baseline berthing schedule, and solve the BAP on a rolling planning horizon wit...

The intermodal points of any transport chain are crucial for its overall efficiency. Sea Traffic Management (STM), and its sub-concept Port Collaborative Decision Making (PortCDM), can play a vital role in improving the overall efficiency of the maritime transport chain. Inspired by a similar concept applied for collaborative decision making within and between airports, PortCDM is a way of esta...
