Port Congestion or Port Dysfunction?
1983The expansion of world trade and rate of growth of industrialised countries from 1945 has been reduced in the last few years, first with the upsurge in oil prices in 1974 and then with the events of the so-called oil crisis. Shipping appeared to be severely hit, with fleets laid up, even if only temporarily. However, traffic congestion in ports did not

Toward a smart port congestion optimizing model
2020 IEEE 13th International Colloquium of Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LOGISTIQUA), 2020Actually, ports are in need to maximize their incomes. To achieve this, all their stakeholders should be involved to participate in the design and the development of a policy of scheduling and priority. This project was carried out by the Vessel Call Service Planning Service in the port of Tanger Med as the “Tanger Med Port Authority”, and this report ...

Port Congestion and Implications to Maritime Logistics
2012Abstract Ports are widely recognised as crucial nodes in international trade and transport. However, for various reasons, capacity does not always match demand: sometimes there is overcapacity, whereas in other cases, demand exceeds capacity and there is a shortage of the latter.

Reducing truck congestion at ports – classification and trends
2017Truck drayage in container ports faces several challenges. Due to the ongoing growth of container ship sizes, there are increasingly high peak situations in landside container handling at logistic nodes in the port, e.g. container terminals, empty depots, freight stations.

Will a national port regulator solve congestion problems in Australian ports?
Maritime Policy & Management, 2007Australia's ports are an integral part of the nation's economy, which relies heavily on trade. In Australia, the governance of ports is the responsibility of the governments of Australia's six states and the Northern Territory, all of which have their own legislation covering the running of the ports and the establishment of port corporations.

Priority Berthing For Congested Ports: rationale and a model
Transportation Planning and Technology, 1992Adverse effects on a national economy of port congestion are identified. The rationale underlying a system of priority berthing for awaiting vessels is described and contrasted with the operational system of first‐come, first‐served. A system of priority berthing is capable of minimizing the generalized social cost of congestion and this is structured ...

Mining Port Congestion Indicators from Big AIS Data
2018 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN), 2018In this paper, we introduce three maritime Port Congestion Indicators (PCIs) mined using Automatic Identification System (AIS) static and dynamic messages. The proposed indicators are spatial complexity, spatial density, and time criticality. To calculate the PCIs, we proposed three Big AIS Data mining algorithms to find the geohash area for certain ...
