The presented paper comes as a summary of a theoretical work presenting an original algorithm describing International Multimodal Transport (IMT) mechanisms and processes. Since containers appeared in early 1960s on the regional, and later on, on global scale in logistic operations, the IMT has become the fastest growing combination of an international through-transport. With use of various modes of transport IMT has significant influence on global trade development. Due to its characteristic the IMT process is exposed on the global unitization, standardization, safety, security and economization (optimization) challenges. Thus, there is a need for scientific approach in building a standardized conceptual model of IMT referred in this paper to CAIMT. CAIMT is an original, deterministic algorithm, presented in the block notation, identifying typical procedures as a logical continuation of the programmed sequence of the basic IMT operations. The suggested CAIMT has a potential in further standardization of IMT procedures and can be scientifically developed through the modeling of the IMT processes and safety/security procedures. In addition, in terms of empirical aspects, algorithmization of the main IMT processes can lead to their application in the various expert systems. Summing up, this method (CAIMT) comes as an optimal instrument that can be utilized in order to build further pillars for IMT development, standardization and optimization.

The subject of this study refers to the analysis of business activity of shipping operators on the global market of maritime container transport constituting a link in the logistics supply chains and networks. The author attempts to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of their operations in the global supply networks indicating their functions and role in the integration process of those chains. The analysis also covered widely perceived economic results arising from their activity, as links connecting global logistics network relations. Moreover, the said results were also analyzed by evaluating them in the view of the impact of the activity of maritime container operators on global commodity markets.

Celem artykułu jest określenie wpływu konteneryzacji w transporcie morskim na rozwój handlu międzynarodowego. Przedstawione zostały korzyści ze stosowania kontenerów dla załadowców i armatorów oraz znaczenie konteneryzacji dla ekspansji globalnej wymiany towarów. Następnie autorzy nakreślili ewolucję morskich przewozów kontenerowych i za pomocą danych statystycznych pokazali jak zmieniała się flota kontenerowa, przeładunki w portach i przewozy kontenerami na świecie w okresie ostatnich kilkunastu lat.

The aim of the article is to determine the impact of containerization in maritime transport on the development of international trade. It presents the benefits of containerization for shippers and shipowners, and the importance of containerization for the expansion of global exchange of goods. The authors then outlined the evolution of containerized sea transport and, using statistical data, showed how the container fleet, port transshipments and containerized transport in the world have changed over the last dozen or so years.
