Abstract

With ports being a strategic hub in the global systems of transport and operations, yard management continues to be a highly sensitive component. This includes a number of optimisation problems, with the container space allocation problem being at the heart of it. In solving this, scientific advances continue to seek capturing elements of agility into the methodological design of solution approaches to improve performance.

The work aims to investigate problem-specific information for the container space allocation problem that facilitate the design of solution approaches with instance-specific information in mind. Particular focus will be drawn towards the consideration of contextual information and port characteristics such as infrastructural information that may influence the performance of solution designs. Relevant gaps for future research are presented.
