In this paper, we propose a general model for various scheduling problems that occur in container terminal logistics … real-world problems from container terminals in the port of Hamburg (Germany). We consider scheduling problems for straddle … carriers, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), stacking cranes, and workers who handle reefer containers. Subsequently, we discuss …
