Abstract
In order to use the yard space efficiently, the authors address the container storage arrangement for transshipment containers with the container flow between multiple ships. In this study, in order to consider the impact on yard space efficiency under various block size at the conventional layout, the authors set the minimization of both total service time and yard space utilization as a multi-objective function. This problem is formulated as a mixed integer programming, and the authors re-arrange the basic multiple objective tabu search (MOTS) proposed by Hansen (1997) in order to obtain the solutions. From the computational results, it is clear that our model can obtain the service time and the yard space use in each block size which depend on ship arrival pattern and ship berthing location pattern, and can also give the users some alternative proposal.
