• Resumen

  • This paper discusses how to route straddle carriers during the loading operation of export containers in port container terminals. The objective of the routing is to minimize the total travel distance of straddle carriers in the quay side. A Genetic Algorithm heuristic is developed for the routing problem, and a numerical experimentation is carried out in order to evaluate the performance of the algorithm.
