Title
Information in a tool for port terminal modelling
Abstract
Terminals are an important part of any transportation system. It is in a terminal that the reallocation of goods flows occurs. Apart from the obvious handling of physical flows information handling is an important part of a logistic process. It both controls and reports the status of the logic system. It is necessary to have an integrated view of both the physical flows and the information flows when modelling logistic systems. In this paper some considerations that have to be made carrying out this modelling are discussed. A tool for port terminal modelling that incorporates information handling is also discussed. The tool is based on an extended version of combinatorial graph theory. Work carried out shows that a tool of this kind is useful for modelling terminals and the network approach makes the tool fairly easy to understand.
