Abstract
In this paper we describe a decision support system for capacity planning of container terminals. Typical elements of a container terminal are a quay, cranes,a stack yard and trucks for transport of containers between the quay and the stack yard and vice versa. For each of these elements we can devise models to describe the performance. The decision support system combined a heuristic analysis of these models to a global model to study the interaction between the elements of a container terminal.
