Optimization on the Multi-period Empty Container Repositioning Problem in Regional Port Cluster Based upon Inventory Control Strategies

Abstract: Within the area of regional port clusters, this paper establishes a multi-period mixed integer programming model to optimize the empty container repositioning between public hinterlands and ports, comprehensively considering the quantitative and periodic inventory control strategy. By using Markov decision process combined with dynamic programming method, this paper dynamically optimizes the empty container inventory threshold (D;U) under quantitative strategy and S under periodical strategy at each port withi… Show more

“…Li et al [1] analyzed the problem of empty container reposition at a single port and established an optimization model for empty container ownership Legros et al [2] used inventory strategies to manage empty containers to save on their usage costs; Poo et al [3] dynamically controlled the inventory cost and allocation cost of empty containers during transportation under random conditions, and developed dynamic strategies for empty container inventory control for shipping companies; Du F [4] studies the optimal empty container inventory at ports from the perspective of shipping alliances. Cai J X [5] considered the joint optimization of empty container reposition and storage in the port group, and adopted an inventory control strategy to dynamically optimize the empty container inventory in the port group and public hinterland.…”
