dc.description.abstract | This paper proposes a general modeling framework adapted to the feedback control of traffic flows in Eulerian
models of the National Airspace System. It is shown that the problems of scheduling and routing aircraft flows in the
National Airspace System can be posed as the control of a network of queues with load-dependent service rates. Focus
can then shift to developing techniques to ensure that the aircraft queues in each airspace sector, which are an
indicator of the air traffic controller workloads, are kept small. This paper uses the proposed framework to develop
control laws that help prepare the National Airspace System for fast recovery from a weather event, given a
probabilistic forecast of capacities. In particular, the model includes the management of airport arrivals and
departures subject to runway capacity constraints, which are highly sensitive to weather disruptions. | en_US |
