This paper presents a framework for the negotiation phase that is foreseen in the new operational concept proposed in the Single European Sky Research (SESAR) program. In particular, this paper describes a possible ...

Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) regulations, such as ground holdings, are often canceled before their initially planned ending time. The ground delays impact on the cost of recovering part of the delay if the regulation ...

Aircraft crew are aware of the delay they have experienced at departure. However, uncertainties ahead, and in particular holdings at arrival, can have an impact on the final performance of their operations. When optimising ...

—This paper compares different optimization strategies for the minimization of flight and passenger delays at two levels: pre-tactical, with on-ground delay at origin, and tactical, with airborne delay close to the ...

In this deliverable, we present a verification and validation plan designed to carry out all necessary activities along Dispatcher3 prototype development. Given the nature of the project, the deliverable points to a ...

Machine learning techniques to support decisionmaking processes are in trend. These are particularly relevant in the context of flight management where large datasets of planned and realised operations are available. ...

When a ground delay program (GDP) is defined, a radius of exemption is typically set to exclude from having to realize ground delay aircraft departing from greater distances than the selected radius distance. A trade-off ...

Flights negatively impact the environment and the aviation industry faces significant challenges to decarbonise. This is particularly relevant for short- and medium-haul flights, as operations in these ranges can be less ...
