摘要
The pre-marshalling problem has been extensively studied in recent years with the aim of minimizing the number of movements needed to rearrange a bay of containers. Time is a more realistic objective for measuring process efficiency, and we show that it does not correlate with the number of movements. As a result, we study the problem of minimizing crane times and develop two exact approaches to solve it: an integer linear model, and a branch and bound algorithm, with new upper and lower bounds, dominance criteria, and a heuristic procedure, to provide optimal solutions for problems of practical size.
