This paper focuses on the response of port authorities to the changing market environment in which they operate. It documents the changes taking place in the relationships between port authorities and terminal management companies and considers the strategic issues faced by these groups and other port interests. In particular, it investigates the potential con¯ icts of interest for a port auth…

Assessing a cross-border logistics policy using a performance measurement sys…

For the most rapidly growing economic entity in the world, China, a new logistics operation called the indirect cross-border supply chain model has recently emerged. The primary idea of this model is to reduce logistics costs by storing goods at a bonded warehouse with low storage cost in certain Chinese regions, such as the Pearl River Delta (PRD). This research proposes a performance measurem…

An RFRS that combines RFID and CBR technologies

The purpose of this paper is to propose a real-time food receiving operations management system (RFRS), focusing on demonstrating the use of a case-based reasoning (CBR) and radio frequency identification (RFID) technology in managing the complex food receiving activities in distribution centers, to deal with the global concerns in food safety management

An analysis of ship escort and convoy operations in ice conditions

Winter navigation is a complex but common operation in the Northern Baltic Sea areas. In Finnish waters, the safety of the wintertime maritime transportation system is managed through the Finnish–Swedish winter navigation system. This system results in different operational modes of ship navigation, with vessels either navigating independently or under icebreaker assistance. A recent risk ana…

This paper studies a storage yard management problem in a transshipment hub where the loading and unloading activities are both heavy and concentrated. In order to reduce the number of reshuffles, which helps to reduce the vessel turnaround time, the port operator uses the consignment strategy to group export and transshipment containers according to their destination vessel. To reduce the pote…

One result of the continuing current competitive environment in Australia is cost pressure on the supply of manufacturing commodities such as anhydrous sodium sulphate. Commodity suppliers do not have much scope for providing value-added services. Anhydrous sodium sulphate, for example, is mostly brought to the customer’s attention when negative service characteristics occur – stocks run lo…

Cargo Work For Maritime Operations

The world of cargo operations has changed considerably from the days of the open stowage of merchandise. Unitized cargoes in the form of ‘containers’ or Roll-on, Roll-off cargoes and pallatization have generated a need for alternative handling methods and changing procedures. The work of the stevedore/longshoreman has moved on to a vastly different role to that previously employed in gener…

This chapter presents a framework which is accessible to port authorities to assess the potential environmental impact of maritime operations. Pursuant on globalisation, increased numbers of shipmovements have generatedmore frequent routine maritime operations in ports but few formal approaches exist for assessing their environmental impact, which potentially could be significant. In a novel f…

PORT OPERATIONS, PLANNING AND LOGISTICS

Ports are critical infrastructure resources and serve a key role in the transportation of freight and people. With more than 80% of international trade by volume being carried by sea, ports are vital for seaborne trade and international commerce. Ports are the critical nodal interfaces where maritime transport connects with other modes of tra sport and where trading, distribution and logistics…

A characterization of a business process

Hess and Oesterle (1996) provide a detailed comparison of 12 approaches to business process reengineering (BPR). Common themes to each method are the gathering of information, some characterization of the business process that is being reengineered followed by analysis and process modification. However, techniques for characterizing business processes are not yet well established. This paper ta…

Application of El Farol model for managing marine terminal gate congestio

Truck queuing at marine terminal gates has long been recognized as a source of emissions problem due to the large number of trucks idling. For this reason, there is a great deal of interest among the different stakeholders to lessen the severity of the problem. An approach being experimented by some terminals to reduce truck queuing at the terminal is to provide live views of their gates via we…

Supply chain risks: a review and typology

Supply chain security (SCS), as a component of an organization’s overall supply chain risk management strategy, has become a critical factor for businesses and government agencies since September 11, 2001, yet little empirical research supports policy or practice for the field. Therefore, this paper develops and presents a categorization of SCS based on existing research. This categorization …

In green logistics operation, all logistics processes form a bidirectional closed-loop topology. In order to model and optimize such a kind of structure, a standardized closed-loop logistics operation reference model is built which aims to provide supply chain managers with general analysis. Based on the reference model, potential risks of closed-loop logistics chain can be analyzed including n…

An efficiency analysis of cargo-handling operations at container terminals

In this paper, a Data Envelopment Analysis approach is used to assess the efficiency of cargo-handling operations at a container terminal and study the factors influencing it. The aim is to provide recommendations that would allow a container terminal to reach high technical efficiency scores, in order to increase its inner productivity. A three-stage methodological framework is proposed to ana…

Efficient handling of containers at a terminal can reduce the overall vessel sojourn times and minimise operational costs. The internal transport of containers in these terminals is performed by vehicles that share a common guide path. The throughput capacity of a terminal may increase by increasing the number of vehicles; however, simultaneously congestion may reduce the effective vehicle spee…

An integrated fuzzy risk assessment for seaport operations

Seaport operations are characterised by high levels of uncertainty, as a result their risk evaluation is a very challenging task. Much of the available data associated with the system’s operations is uncertain and ambiguous, requiring a flexible yet robust approach of handling both quantitative and qualitative data as well as a means of updating existing information as new data becomes availa…

Hazards analysis of routine ship towage operations in Indian coastal waters

Main cause of accidents is just not always bad luck. Literature on safety has emphasised on the facts that accident finally leads to unfortunate consequence. The first step of risk assessment is to identify the hazards that are present. The Routine Ship Towage, also called harbour towage, is potentially a hazardous operation. The main objective of this research is to identify and quantify the i…
