  • In order to promote the studies in the area of optimizing fleet development strategy, the core task and basic goal of fleet planning were analyzed, and the research progress was concluded.The research methods applied to fleet planning problems were reviewed and divided into linear programming, integer programming, dynamic programming, simulation technology and other methods.The research emphases and directions of fleet planning in the future were indicated.Analysis result shows that the previous researches on fleet planning for mass industrial material shipping have gotten a lot of achievements, the object of future research should focus on container liner shipping and tramp shipping, and the future research focus should be the development of new optimization models and algorithms.The problems of fleet planning under uncertain condition will be the direction of future research, and the application of decision support system for fleet planning must be a development trend for shipping industry in the future.
