  • System and method of vessel scheduling for product distribution
    Patent number: 10535033
    Abstract: A system, computer-implemented method, and software for automatically planning and scheduling ocean-going vessels for oil distribution is provided. The scheduling of the vessels is based on a filtered beam search and greedy heuristic. A server can be used for receiving a schedule request and one or more constraints for scheduling one or more vessels from one or more users. An optimization engine can be used for generating a schedule based at least in part on the one or more constraints using a beam search algorithm.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 26, 2017
    Date of Patent: January 14, 2020
    Assignee: JDA Software Group, Inc.
