چکیده
With most major airlines operating a hub-and-spoke system and partnering with other airlines to offer code share flights, more and more passengers are required to make at least one connection before reaching their final destination. These trends in the airline industry have increased the percentage of transfer passengers. In order to minimize the number of missed connections and offer customers a seamless journey, airlines must maintain time limits in which domestic and international transfer passengers can reach their connecting gates at the airports. This paper focuses on how simulation is used to evaluate an airline’s minimum connect time criteria with respect to the design and operational policies at its hub airports. We consider a case study of Delta Air Lines’ new planned state-of-the-art facility at John F. Kennedy International Airport to illustrate the significant role simulation played in the planning stages of an airport design.

Simulation optimization has received considerable attention from both simulation researchers and practitioners. In this tutorial we present a broad introduction to simulation optimization and the many techniques that have been suggested to solve simulation optimization problems. Both continuous and discrete problems are discussed, but an emphasis is placed on discrete problems and practical met...

In this paper, we discuss issues concerning the simulation of transportation systems. In particular, we demonstrate a number of implementation tricks that are designed to make the modeling and coding processes more efficient and transparent. We present examples involving the simulation of commercial airline and military sealift operations.

This paper demonstrates how to use Simkit to create Discrete Event Simulation models using a component framework. The component framework is based on a listener design pattern especially useful for simulation models. The objects created are called Listener Event Graph Objects, so the component framework is called LEGO. Simkit is an Open Source package written in Java.
