Generating a Slot Assignment Rule for Outbound Containers Having Imprecise Weight Information
Jae-Ho Kang, Kwang-Ryel Ryu, Kap-Hwan Kim
Abstract
The outbound containers in a container terminal are classified into a few groups by their weights and stacked separately in a yard for easy and efficient handling. In order to maintain the balance of a ship during loading, containers of heavier weight groups should be fetched out of a yard and loaded onto the ship before those of lighter weight groups. However, the weight information used to determine the weight group is usually imprecise. Therefore stacks will actually be filled with mixture of different weight groups and rehandlings are unavoidable during loading operation. This paper presents a method for estimating the number of rehandlings caused by imprecise information and a scheme for generating a simple but efficient slot assignment rule. Experiments have shown that a rule generated by the proposed method can reduce the number of rehandlings by about 20% compared to the traditional slot assignment method which stacks only the containers of the same weight group in a single stack.
