Abstract [eng] One of the main problems in the maritime container terminals is inefficient use of technical (quay cranes, yard cranes, mobile cranes) and human resources. All this affects negatively the scheduling of transportation and storage processes in the terminals. A new method proposed for the multicrane scheduling in maritime container terminals is based on the wireless inter-crane communication networks and dynamical localization of the mobile cranes using the Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) technologies. It is shown that this method outperforms significantly the currently used owing to better time dependence of the crane traveling distance which allows for saving time resources.
