Abstract: Based on revenue management,the capacity allocation problem of container ocean shipping industry is studied quantitatively under demand uncertainty.Firstly,the difference is described between container ocean shipping revenue management problem and airline revenue management problem.Then two stochastic programming models are developed on capacity allocation with and without empty containers transportation involved,and which are solved by the method of robust optimization.Finally we explained the application value of the models and methods to the container ocean shipping companies by digital simulation.

Key words: container, revenue management, capacity allocation, robust optimization
