Abstract
The railway freight terminals play a key role within the multimodal logistic chain. Therefore, the transit time through these terminals represents one of the most relevant. It is a basic node in a transportation network, where thousand of daily ecisions are taken to manage this sustained flow of containers. A decision support system for the management of an intermodal container terminal is presented and in particular. A simulation tool it has been developed. The role of simulation becomes of paramount importance in such a setting. The tool is a discrete event simulation. A national case study is examined.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
