“…In many cases, the service time distribution may differ (Erlang, when b-1; and normal, the same as the general probability distribution). However, the exponential distribution can be used as the first approximation and base for deriving parameters resulting fiom other distributions, [Radmilovic, 1992;Radmilovic et al, 1996; Radmilovic ef al., 19981.…”

This paper deals with transportation technology regarding links between power unit or motor ship and ship cargo space. These links can be divided into two groups: rigid and flexible. Rigid link, established between power unit and cargo space, is dominant in maritime and road transport (sea ships and trucks), and occasionally in transport on inland waterways (self‐propelled barges). Flexible link is used in railroad transport (between the locomotive and railroad units), partially in road transport (systems with trailers and semitrailers), and in inland waterway transport (push‐towing, pulling systems and combinations of these systems). The main goal of this research is determination of possible link types and organization of fleet for transport on inland waterways in case of flexible link.

“…This methodology determines the optimum number and capacity of berths within seaports and river ports. In [7], the authors deal with the port storage locations as queuing systems with bulk arrivals and a single service. The optimal numbers of servers in queuing system with bulk arrivals by minimizing the total costs of system are determined in [8].…”
