Abstract

This paper presents a research framework on loading and unloading process for inter terminal transfer (ITT) operation. Container movement in the transport industry depends on the service provided in the terminal. The complexity of the activities in the process could possibly contribute to potential delays occurred. In this paper, Petri Nets (PN) is introduced as new approach in modeling the container loading and unloading process in hierarchical structure. Several factors which is container, loading and environment will be considered in the model.
