Approaches to Incorporating Robustness into Airline Scheduling
(2000-08)
The airline scheduling process used by major airlines today aims to develop opti-
mal schedules which maximize revenue. However, these schedules are often far from
\optimal" once deployed in the real world because they ...
Impact of Operating Context on the Use of Structure in Air Traffic Controller Cognitive Processes
(2003-06-23)
This paper investigates the influence of structure on air traffic controllers’ cognitive processes in the TRACON, En Route, and Oceanic environments. Radar data and voice command analyses were conducted to support hypotheses ...
Design And Evaluation Of A Portable Electronic Flight Progress Strip System
(MIT International Center for Air Transportation, 2003-06)
There has been growing interest in using electronic alternatives to the paper Flight Progress Strip
(FPS) for air traffic control. However, most research has been centered on radar-based control
environments, and has not ...
Experimental Evaluation Of Portable Electronic Flight Progress Strips
(2004-10)
Air traffic service providers are increasingly
embracing electronic alternatives to the traditional
paper Flight Progress Strip (FPS). However, most
development of such electronic systems, and of
Decision Support Tools ...
Use of Structure as a Basis for Abstraction in Air Traffic Control
(2003-03)
The safety and efficiency of the air traffic control domain is highly dependent on the capabilities and limitations of its human controllers. Past research has indicated that structure provided by the airspace and procedures ...
Experimental Studies of the Effect of Intent Information on
(Internationa, 1997-05)
Intent information provides knowledge of another aircraft’s current and future trajectory states. Prototype traffic displays were designed for four different levels of intent: Position, Rate, Commanded State, and FMS-Path. ...
Evaluation of Regional Jet Operating Patterns in
(2004-05)
Airlines are increasingly using regional jets to better match aircraft size to high
value, but limited demand markets. The increase in regional jet usage represents a
significant change from traditional air traffic ...
Pilot Perception and Use of ADS-B Traffic and Weather Services (TIS-B & FIS-B)
(2014-10-08)
Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) is a central component of the NextGen air traffic control modernization program. It is intended to improve traffic surveillance capabilities by sharing accurate aircraft ...
Preliminary Design and Evaluation of Portable Electronic Flight Progress Strips
(2002-10)
There has been growing interest in using electronic alternatives to the paper Flight Progress Strip (FPS) for air traffic control. However, most research has been centered on radar-based control environments, and has not ...
Identification of Communication and Coordination Issues in the U. S. Air Traffic Control System
(2001-06)
Today’s air traffic control system is approaching the point of saturation, as evidenced by increasing delays across the National Airspace System (NAS). There exists an opportunity to enhance NAS efficiency and reduce ...
