The evolution of maritime logistics as an emerging discipline has resulted, to a large extent, from the increasing and varied demands of shippers and customers and the rapidly changing role of ports in the context of supply and logistics chains. Scho... Read More about Maritime logistics as an emerging discipline.

Evaluating impacts of institutional reforms on port efficiency changes: Ownership, corporate structure, and total factor productivity changes of world container ports (2010)
Journal Article
Cheon, S., Dowall, D. E., & Song, D. (2010). Evaluating impacts of institutional reforms on port efficiency changes: Ownership, corporate structure, and total factor productivity changes of world container ports. Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, 46, 546-561. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tre.2009.04.001

This paper evaluates how port institutional reforms influenced efficiency gains between 1991 and 2004. We constructed a panel data for port ownership, corporate structure, and port inputs and outputs for 98 major world ports, and we implemented the M...

Weighting the competitiveness factors for container ports under conflicting interests (2009)
Journal Article
Yeo, G. T., Song, D., Dinwoodie, J., & Roe, M. (2009). Weighting the competitiveness factors for container ports under conflicting interests. Journal of the Operational Research Society, 61, 1249-1257. https://doi.org/10.1057/jors.2009.88

Generally, an evaluation of container port competitiveness is regarded as a multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem which involves various stakeholders with conflicting interests. To solve MCDM problems, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP)... Read More about Weighting the competitiveness factors for container ports under conflicting interests.
