This paper deals with automated guided vehicles (AGVs) which transport containers between the quai and the stack on automated container terminals. The focus is on the assigment of transportation jobs to AGVs within a terminal control system operating in real time. First, we describe a rather...

In this paper, we propose a general model for various scheduling problems that occur in container terminal logistics. The scheduling model consists of the assignment of jobs to resources and the temporal arrangement of the jobs subject to precedence constraints and sequence-dependent setup...

This paper studies the allocation of buffer times in a single machine environment. Buffer times are a common tool to protect the schedule against disruptions such as machine failures. We introduce new classes of robust machine scheduling problems. For an arbitrary scheduling problem 1

In this paper the problem of designing experiments for a model which is called Monod model and is frequently used in microbiology is studied. The model is defined implicitly by a differential equation and has numerous applications in microbial growth kinetics, environmental research,...
