... 66 SUMMARY OF DEMONSTRATION CONTENT These models serve as a tool for planners in estimating freight flow patterns produced from specified origins, as the models are able to reflect the geographic patterns of freight activity. To assist in producing FSA estimates, the research team developed the Freight and Service Activity Generation Software using the models documented in NCFRP Research Report 37.

... 67 Ports of the Future: Deploying Emulation and Real-Time Simulation for Identifying Technologies for Improved Port Supply Chain Performance Lawrence Henesey, Blekinge Institute of Technology The CHESSCON tool developed by ISL Applications in Bremerhaven, Germany, is used in scientific studies of container terminal operations. The simulation and emulation facilities provide novel means for researchers and academics to study and analyze methods for improving productivity in container terminals.
