The reasonable dispatching and scheduling of the Tandem Quay Cranes and trucks is the foundation to improve the efficiency of the container terminals. Under the base of single lift quay cranes research, a research on Tandem Lift Quay Cranes and Yard Trucks scheduling is carried on in this paper. A mixed integer programming (MIP) model can be built to solve an integrated tandem lift quay crane and yard truck scheduling problem (i-TLQCYT). A Local Sequence-cut Method is applied to solve the model. Then the shortest time to complete the unloading operations can be got.

The major difficulties of the operation of loading, unloading and transportation at container terminals are how to schedule berths, quay cranes and trucks more effectively and efficiently. Therefore, how to optimize their configurations effectively and connect them more reasonably is a problem which should be solved eagerly. However, a reasonable and effective optimization model is the basis and the key of this problem. The operation time of container terminals mainly depends on the time of ships in port and the operation time of trucks, quay cranes and yard cranes. So, the objective of this paper is to minimize the sum of these four parts. An optimization model based on some reasonable and necessary hypotheses is proposed and an algorithm and procedure are designed.
