Expert Systems For CHE Productivity

How does an expert system increase RTGproductivity?

– Visualize where the work is (decision support)

– Accurate move times for all moves

– RTG Demand forecasting

– Coordinated work schedule’s based on the predictedwork

– Directed, optimized RTG deployment

– Feedback to user when RTG assignment likely to causea quay crane delay
