Optimized Slot Allocation for A Single Liner Service / 單一定期航線最適艙位分配之研究

碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 航運管理學系 / 93 / While facing increasingly competitive market on ship enlargement and uncertain cargo demands, most liner companies would increase the usage of container space through Slot Allocation so as to maximize the margins for the company. It is expected that slot allocation would be the major strategic issue for those liner companies. However, the study of slot allocation is less discussed on previous literature and academic research. Therefore, in the beginning of the chapters, Single liner service is used as the foundation, and to evaluate the effects of different container allocation, upon either Joint venture or Self-Operation.
Among those chapters, slot allocation will be first discussed under Self-Operation business, and go through changing the freight charge and container demands to observe the effects on slot allocation. Secondly, by way of Joint-Operation mode, a mathematical model is constructed to calculate the ideal number of ship dispatch and space commerce.
In terms of past literature review and those un-solved questions, this research is aimed at pursuing the maximum profits based on proposing a suitable mathematical model. Those related generators and algorithm were coded in Visual C++ and this CPLEX software is used to provide an adequate solution. This is expected to verify the accuracy and appropriateness of the whole assumption and preset testing model. By comparing the situation upon estimated results and real slot allocation, it would not only help to testify the reliability of this mathematical model; it would also help to figure out the factors that would affect the slot allocation via detailed analysis of the outcome. Upon the cooperation with real business operation, this research is believed to benefit those liner companies by offering a well-calculated model and targeted to raise the profit margins.
