Containerized shipment is the most convenient and cost-saving method for transportation of goods. In this article the processes of containerized cargo handling based on a queuing model is formalized. Different cargo handling models are described, and the process modeling based on local mutual assistance is considered. Analytical models for process performance indicators in steady-state conditions are defined. Optimization issues in designing and operating transshipment terminals are identified and the ways of resolving these issues are offered. Analytical models of process performance indicators, helping to optimize cargo handling processes in special conditions, are defined.
