Application of linear programming and optimisation software in an operations consultancy problem : a costs-minimising computerised optimisation model for empty container reposition... by Wang, Jiali., Chen, Hazel Shijia., Tan, Desmond Zhewen.

“…The objective is to minimise the expected total repositioning costs such as day-dependent transport cost, port handling cost (i.e. the costs of loading and unloading an empty container at a port), holding (i.e. storage) cost and lost-sale penalty cost. The AIMMS optimisation software was used to model the linear programming formulation, and generate repositioning solutions for end-user shipping companies. …”

Can PECL help with vexing issues of maritime law? Critical reflections from the example of the Rotterdam Rules by Magklasi, Ioanna

“…This paper studies the trajectory, background and objectives of PECL and identifies the link between contract law and maritime laws (namely carriage of goods by sea and international sale of goods).The author will present the intricacies of these laws, in an attempt to justify why, despite extensive codification and standardisation, maritime law is still in need of legal certainty and occasionally of fairer application of the law to the disputes not only by national courts, but also in the wider European context. …”
