PORT SIMULATION MODEL : PORT SIMULATION MODEL


PROGRAM DESIGN : PROGRAM DESIGN Time-stepped, Discrete Event, Simulation of Port Operations: Determines port throughput capability Identifies constraints Determines port unit clearance profiles Analyzes at “eaches” level of detail Scenario specific JLOTS via CITM (austere port module) Dynamic Future: 2 and 3-D animation


Slide7 : PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Objectives: Object-oriented port simulation addressing military port mobility issues Ability to simulate military units through a specified port with individual cargo items represented Port throughput and utilization statistics for all port resources (gates, staging, berths, inspectors, MHE, etc.) Ability to track cargo from arrival times at gates or end ramps to the time it is loaded aboard ship Dynamic animation - identifies bottlenecks and facilitates the playing of what-if scenarios to maximize throughput


Slide8 : DEPLOYMENT ISSUES How long does it take a force to move through a port (port unit clearance profiles)? What and where are the bottlenecks within a port? What part of a port is needed based on the force moving through it? Why are the forces not closed by the required time and what are current force locations/status within a port? What is the measured impact of JLOTS on force projection and the DTS? Designed To Answer The Following Deployment Questions:


DATA : DATA Various Levels Of Detail: PORTSIM


Slide10 : ANIMATION Current: port event history file passed from PORTSIM to 2D animation viewer Future: dynamic Animation overlaid on infrastructure rendering Common infrastructure objects utilized (RULST) Developed in Java: zoom, pan adjustable speed Dynamic statistics reporting: staging and berthing


Slide11 : RULST Infrastructure Data: Road and rail segments: routes Landmarks: berths, gates, staging areas, interchange yards, buildings, … All Infrastructure Element Modeled at High Level of Detail RULST Tool: User dynamically creates road and rail infrastructure PORTSIM utilizes infrastructure data to play “what-if” scenarios on infrastructure
