| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 企業管理學系碩士在職專班 === 100 === Since the terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11th 2001, many government initiatives, regulations and mandates have introduced new requirements for container security. Implementation of information technology could help container terminal to achieve required security improvement. However, selecting suitable technology solutions is a challenging task for port authority because port processes are complicated and technological alternatives are divergent.
In this paper, a decision-making framework for evaluating technology solution alternatives for transshipment processes in maritime terminals was developed. The objective of this framework is to provide an approach for decision makers to select an optimal technology solution for security improvement in container terminal with respect to the operational strategies of port authority. This approach consists of a multistage influence diagram modeling the terminal’s sequential technology selection decisions. The influence diagram graphically describes the elements of the decision process and takes into account the preferences of decision makers under conditions of uncertainty. The solution procedure of framework is illustrated with a case study and a sensitivity analysis is performed to test the robustness of the decision model.
