Offshore construction logistics pose a challenging problem in terms of planning and control. Generally, one can differentiate two approaches: event-discrete simulations and mathematical optimizations. Both methods provide their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of computational time, level of detail, and optimality.
This project aimed to provide a foundation for the complementary use of both model types. Therefore, the project resulted in a set of tools that, e.g., enable users to derive discrete-event simulations and mathematical models for different subproblems from a single unified metamodel. Moreover, the resulting models can provide decision support on an operational level, taking into account current weather forecasts.
