  • Abstract
    This paper studies the selection of CDMs (CDM, Collecting and Distributing Mode). A connotation for CDSCP (CDSCP, Collecting and Distributing System of Container Port) is presented. After establishing a layered architecture, an optimized model with the goal of the minimum of the network cost is set up. And finally, a heuristic algorithm is advanced.
