[0002] With the growth of container volume and the development of large-scale and high-speed ships, international logistics and transportation have put forward higher requirements on port operation capabilities. With the improvement of port automation and the expansion of resource scale, the random disturbance between the subsystems of the port has increased, resulting in the increasing difficulty of multi-stage serial and parallel operations of the system and their mutual connection, and the complexity of port operation management has increased exponentially. Port and shipping logistics have the operational characteristics of complex scene interaction and multiple entity coupling and coordination, which determines that the operation management system in the port and shipping field must systematically consider the complex dynamic operation network of the entire process of the port and shipping.
[0003] However, port and shipping logistics is a multi-level complex logistics system. The existing port and shipping operation management system platform often controls and makes decisions on port and shipping operations based on the production operations of a single terminal, the operating process of a single port, and static operating data instructions, which is not suitable for the current complex port management.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a system that can perform information display and operation control optimization based on digital twins for complex port conditions. Summary of the invention
