Ship's cargo handling optimization

This paper proposes a new optimization model of cargo handling operations on ships which solution results in determination of the structure of resources required, along with attaining the minimum total "in-port" costs and the minimum time required for completion of cargo operations. Due to complexity of the model the solution has been sought by utilization of an adapted genetic algorithm. In the course of decision making, the ship operator can, on the basis of the proposed model and taking into consideration shipping market data, choose appropriate variation of the returned solution, which incorporates minimum costs, minimum of operational time and related cargo handling resources.
