Abstract :
Several use of simulation tool in intermodal container terminal are presented. Initially, an overview of the operations within Casablanca container terminal is described. Then it is shown the simulation model that we have proposed and its calibration and validation. Finally, we discuss the design of a decision support system to assist the management in real time decision making.
