Summary: This book is a comparative study of the critical factors in berth productivity in Chinese and South Korean container terminals.

With the results obtained for the leading Asian container terminals it identifies the relationship between critical factors for berth productivity and their order of importance. The findings provide guidelines for terminal operators to improve berth productivity.
