Classifies the optimization problems of the ports into five scheduling decisions. For each decision, it supplies an overview, formulates each of the decisions as constraint satisfaction and optimization problems, and then covers possible solutions, implementation, and performance.

Part One explores the various optimization problems in modern container terminals, while Part Two details advanced algorithms for the minimum cost flow (MCF) problem and for the scheduling problem of AGVs in ports. A complete package that can help readers address the scheduling problems of AGVs in ports.
