Therefore, computer technology, network technology and automation technology has become the port to realize the automatic management of technical points. From the perspective of logistics, port logistics management includes two levels of logistics operations and logistics information, including operations such as transportation, warehousing, loading and unloading. The information runs through the whole process of logistics management, including the collection, processing and analysis of information[7]. 143 2.3. The influence of computer technology on logistics operation mode. The modern logistics management information system is generally through LE (Logistic Execution System) To complete the automation process of logistics management. LES runs through the whole process of logistics management. LES frees the operation mode of logistics from the traditional tedious manual management mode, and realizes the full automation of the whole process with the help of computer technology. LES is mainly composed of three functional systems: cross enterprise document flow processing system, warehouse operating system, and distribution execution system. The whole system is based on the Internet, and the data information exchange and resource sharing are completed through the Internet[8]. 2.4. The impact of computer technology on container scheduling. In the container stacking work is completed, the computer will form the relevant information record and save. Container scheduling is the stacking process of the reverse operation. According to the actual needs of customers, the program from the computer to retrieve the basic information of the container, and according to the operator's instructions, according to the principle of the optimal path to call the designated containers, but also the use of empty containers on the rational allocation of resources to improve the efficiency of the use of containers. 2.5. The impact of computer technology on harbor warehouse management. Computer technology has been popularized in the field of warehouse management. Realize the real-time control and management of warehouse information management, coupled with the effective integration of digital identification technology and computer technology, making the degree of automation and digitalization of warehouse management greatly improved. With the help of local area network can be warehousing data and information transfer to the office terminal and processing and summarization can also be accomplished through the use of computer technology on the organization and monitoring of warehousing resources[9]. With the help of computer systems to achieve effective mastery of warehousing space and storage of goods. At the same time, the organic combination of bar code technology and computer technology is also coupled with financial systems, management systems, distribution systems, the effective integration, the formation of a complete and detailed automation process. 3.
