摘要 The freight logistics includes all the processes needed to supply industry,retailers and wholesalers and final customers with goods.Such processes generate a flow of goods that,in the global supply chain,mainly relies on the activities carried out within worldwide container terminals.In this paper,the authors present a simulation model of a real container terminal.After some preliminary analyses,the simulation model is first used with Design of Experiments and Analysis of Variance to investigate the effects of different resources allocations(i.e.,number of forklifts and tractors)and some parameters(i.e.,inter-arrival times,container unloading time)on the container terminal performances in terms of total number of handled containers per day.Then,based on the results achieved through the Design of Experiments and Analysis of Variance,the simulation model is used with genetic algorithms to carry out a range allocation optimization on berth assignment to incoming ships and number of tractors serving each quay crane.The aim of the optimization is the minimization of the average time spent by each ship in the port area(decreasing,as consequence,costs and increasing service level provided to final customers).
