Description
Summary:The problem of reshuffling is a current phenomenon practically in every container terminal. So far, there has been no unambiguous solution to the problem of reshuffling of cargo units. This is due to the specifics of the terminals, available equipment, information provided by the participants of the logistics chain as well as the methods that are implemented in handling terminals. The aim of the article is to present a model with sequence of operations which may allow for reduced losses resulting from the need to move the same cargo unit multiple times.
