We consider the operation of ship locks with one or more parallel chambers, which can transfer several ships in a single lockage operation. The corresponding lock scheduling problem consists of three strongly interconnected sub problems: lockage scheduling, chamber assignment, and ship positioning. An efficient Combinatorial Benders' decomposition is developed. Experiments on a large test set show that this decomposition method strongly outperforms an existing monolithic approach, especially for instances with a complex ship positioning sub problem.status: publishe
