Abstract:
The relevance of the research is due to the need to increase the efficiency and competitiveness of seaports in the context of constantly growing volumes of cargo transportation, as well as the need to develop effective tools for analyzing and optimizing complex processes occurring in the port infrastructure. This article presents the process of developing a simulation model of a seaport using AnyLogic software. The aim of the work is to create a tool for analyzing and optimizing various aspects of the port’s operation, including ship handling, loading and unloading operations, warehouse management and traffic flows. The key elements of the model are described, such as agents (ships, cranes, loaders, transport), the logic of their interaction, and parameters that affect system performance. The possibility of using the developed model for making informed management decisions aimed at increasing efficiency and optimizing the operation of the seaport is shown.
Keywords:agent-based approach, port optimization, simulation modeling.
