Abstract The quayside operation problem is one of the key components in the management system for a container terminal. In this paper, the integrated models proposed in the previous studies to address the quayside operation problem are examined and one of the potential frameworks is identified. A new method called combinatorial benders’ cuts algorithm is developed to solve the berth-level model in the framework. The computational experiment conducted in this research shows that the proposed approach is more efficient than the branch and cut algorithm embedded in CPLEX.
