This study examines the relationship between perceptions of high-commitment HRM, person-organization (P-O) fit, organizational engagement, and deviant workplace behaviors. Drawing on social exchange theory (SET) P-O fit theory, a mediated moderation model is proposed in which moderates HRM which, turn, relates to Using two multilevel multisource datasets, from shipping management company (Study...

In this contribution we optimize the transportation of containers in the hinterland of a local area with one terminal and one depot for empty containers and trucks. There are several customers who want to receive goods by inbound containers and several customers who want to ship goods by outbound containers. Additionally, there are empty inbound containers and empty outbound containers. We pres...

Agent-based models are increasingly being used to simulate and analyze various transportation problems, from traffic flow [15] to air traffic control [1]. One transportation industry that has not received as much attention from the multi-agent systems community is seaport container terminals. It can be argued that the operations that take place at a container terminal are as complex as that of ...

Seaport container terminals are source of many interesting large-scale optimization problems, which arise in the management of operations at several decision levels. In this paper we firstly illustrate a recently proposed framework, called two-stage column generation (Salani and Vacca, 2008), which is suitable for a particular class of large-scale problems, where the structure of the original f...

Seaports are critical links within supply chains that often located near residential areas. These seaports can be directly affected by the consequences of operational risk sources and natural disasters such as undeclared dangerous goods flood, respectively. The diversity large number stakeholders at add another level complexity for management requires a standard approach clear guidelines. This ...

In the last four decades the container, as an essential part of a unit-load-concept, has scored a great success in international sea freight transportation. With increasing containerization the number of seaport container terminals and competition has increased considerably. One of the success factors of a terminal is related to the time in port for container vessels and the transshipment rates...

In recent years a number of seaport facilities have been awarded in Demsetz auctions to the operator that bidding the lowest cargo-handling fee. A major concern is that the port operator may integrate into shipping and sabotage competitors, thereby rendering the competitive auction irrelevant. The standard policy recommendation to mitigate this problem, is to ban the seaport from operating in t...

Schema: Many applications of knowledge discovery require the knowledge to be consistent with data. Examples include discovering rules for query optimization, database integration, decision support, etc. However, databases usually change over time and make machine-discovered knowledge inconsistent with data. Useful knowledge should be robust against database changes so that it is unlikely to bec...
