This paper presents a new maritime container assignment model to seek the most proper method to assign two different types of containers with different priorities to minimize its objective function. This model enforces the flow conversation of each node, examines whether each link is attractive, and takes the throughput constraints and shipping sizes into consideration based on a linear programming model. We mainly consider two types of containers to illustrate the properties of this model. The containers with a higher priority in the allocation problem cannot be placed on the less priority containers’ slots. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the application of the model.
