Abstract :
When multi-layer architecture is adopted in the development of software, the developing efficiency and quality of software products can be improved. MVC (Model-View-Controller) is an advanced idea of designing software. It not only separates functional module from displaying module, but also improves maintainability, extendibility, portability and components´ reusability. The informationizing level of container yard management, one important link of container transportation management, has gained increasing attention from people. Container yard management deeply depends on real-time information feedback that guides dispatch of actual activities on yard. Operations based on graphs make this process simple and simultaneously improve the efficiency of system. According to particular business requirements, we adopt the method of multi-layer architecture to design and optimize the management of container yard.
