Abstract
This research aims to discover effective integrated operation method of an automated container terminal, which includes the integration of ATC re-stacking rule, AGV dispatching rule, and container crane in order to minimize the makespan in time of loading. This study tried to find out the optimal way of reducing delay time, consequently minimizing the makespan. Among the many situations – the re-marshaling degree of blocks, the number of container and AGV – an empirical study should identify which combination of operation methods are most likely to be robust and effective. To this end, simulation models of equipment operation have been tested under various environments.
