This paper studies the problem of stowage planning within a vessel bay in a multiple port transportation route, aiming at minimizing the total container shifting fee. Since the access to containers is in the top-to-bottom order for each stack, reshuffle operations occur when a target container to be unloaded at its destination port is not stowed on the top of a stack at the time. Each container shift via a quay crane induces one unit of shifting fee that depends on the charge policy of the local container port. Previous studies assume that each container shift consumes a uniform cost in all ports and thus focus on minimizing the total number of shifts or the turnaround time of the vessel. Motivated by the observation that different ports are of nonuniform fee for each container shift, we propose a mixed integer programming (MIP) model for the problem to produce an optimal stowage planning with minimum total shifting fee in this work. Moreover, as the considered problem is NP-hard due to the NP-hardness of its counterpart with uniform unit shifting fee, we propose an improved genetic algorithm to solve the problem. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated via numerical experiments.

AbSTRAk Pengembangan game edukasi yang dibuat fokus pada permasalahan yang terjadi pada manajemen pelabuhan utamanya pada permasalahan loading kontainer di suatu bay kapal. Permasalahan dalam perencanaan loading di bay kapal biasa disebut dengan Master Bay Plan Problem (MBPP). PENDAHULUANSeiring dengan pesatnya permintaan akan transportasi laut, jasa pengiriman transportasi laut harus berpikir keras untuk meningkatkan efisiensi sehingga dapat meningkatkan daya saing terhadap jasa transportasi lain. Untuk mencapai hal tersebut, perlu adanya pengetahuan dan pemahaman terhadap perkembangan ilmu dan teknologi yang terkait. Akademisi dapat berperan aktif untuk memberikan kontribusi berupa transfer ilmu terhadap jasa transportasi laut. Salah satu metode transfer ilmu yang dapat dilakukan adalah menggunakan game edukasi.Game edukasi berbasis simulasi didesain untuk mensimulasikan permasalahan yang ada sehingga diperoleh esensi atau ilmu yang dapat digunakan untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan tersebut. Game simulasi dengan tujuan edukasi ini dapat digunakan sebagai salah satu media edukasi yang memiliki pola pembelajaran learning by doing. Berdasarkan pola yang dimiliki oleh game tersebut, pemain dituntut untuk belajar sehingga dapat menyelesaikan permasalahan yang ada. Status game, instruksi, dan tools yang disediakan oleh game akan membimbing pemain secara aktif untuk menggali informasi sehingga dapat memperkaya pengetahuan dan strategi saat bermain.

“…The containers are stacked on top of one another, and when dispatching a certain container, containers stacked on top of it needs to be removed. The objective in container stowage problems is therefore often to minimize the loading/unloading time of all containers (Ambrosino et al, 2004) or the number of container movements (Avriel et al, 1998). Where a container is lifted straight up from its position, a vehicle's entry/exit route needs to be calculated for each vehicle in the RoRo ship stowage problem (RSSP).…”

Abstract. Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) ships represent the primary source for transporting vehicles and other types of rolling material over long distances. In this paper we focus on operational decisions related to stowage of cargoes for a RoRo ship voyage visiting a given set of loading and unloading ports. By focusing on stowage on one deck on board the ship, this can be viewed as a special version of a 2-dimensional packing problem with a number of additional considerations, such as one wants to place vehicles that belong to the same shipment close to each other to ease the loading and unloading. Another important aspect of this problem is shifting, which means temporarily moving some vehicles to make an entry/exit route for the vehicles that are to be loaded/unloaded at the given port. We present several versions of a new mixed integer programming (MIP) formulation for the problem. Computational results show that the model provides good solutions on small sized problem instances.
