Abstract

Solving the problem of allocating and scheduling quay cranes (QCs) is very important to ensure favorable port service. This work proposes a bi-criteria mixed integer programming model of the continual and dynamic arrival of several vessels at a port. A multi-objective genetic algorithm is applied to solve the problem in three cases. The results thus obtained confirm the feasibility and effectiveness of the model and GA. Additionally, the multi-objective solution considering both the total duration for which vessels stay in the port and QCs move is the best, as determined by comparing with considering only the total time for which vessels stay in the port or QCs move, as it considers, and it balances these two objectives.
