Development of a Distributed Simulation Model for Container Terminal Operational ManagementBy Rajiv Sharma
Abstract: In the shipping port sector, container traffic and its distribution are dynamic, complicated, and highly non-linear; and hence are complex to manage. To efficiently function, and to provide strategic support for the increasing traffic, the ports must either expand infrastructural facilities or improve efficiency of existing operations. In aiming to explore the options through which ports can improve efficiency, this note presents a container terminal simulation model and discusses components …

An integrated analysis of shipbuilding for industrial growth and development of IndiaBy Rajiv Sharma
Abstract: Nations that are smaller than India and suffer from multiple adversaries still have been able to advance and develop their industrial base and grow richer, e.g. Israel (44474 $US, GDP per capita) and Sri Lanka (14509 $US, GDP per capita). As a nation, we have failed to develop into a nation capable of manufacturing and to build a base that can drive India’s industrial progress. Herein, we examine the role …
