Evaluating performance of container terminal operation using simulation

A container terminal is a facility where containers are transshipped from one mode of transport to another. Congestion problem leads to the decreasing of the customer’s level of satisfaction. This study presents the application of simulation technique with the main objective of this study is to deve...
