The continuous Berth Allocation Problem in a container terminal with multiple quays

作者：

Highlights：

• We propose an integer linear model for the case of BAP with multiple quays.

• We design several constructive procedures and propose a large set of priority rules.

• We design a genetic algorithm, using the solutions obtained by the priority rules.

• For BAP with one quay, our genetic algorithm outperforms the best published methods.
