A Market Mechanism for Airport Traffic Control∗
نویسندگان
چکیده
A weighted-voting mechanism is presented in which agents are able to jointly decide on plan repair proposals in the airport traffic control domain. The mechanism uses Clarke Tax for incentive compatible bidding. It provides a slider value by which an airport can control the balance between optimality and fairness of plan repair solutions. Special care is taken to ensure that agents have no incentive to vote untruthfully and that no agent gets too much negotiation power.

Towards a Market Mechanism for Airport Traffic Control
We present a multiagent decision mechanism for the airport traffic control domain. It enables airlines to jointly decide on proposals for plan conflict solutions. The mechanism uses weighted voting for maximizing global utility and Clarke Tax to discourage manipulation. We introduce accounts to ensure that all agents are treated fairly, to some extent. The mechanism allows an airport to determi...
متن کاملCompetitive Behavior of Airlines at Multiple Airport Systems
The way passenger traffic is distributed at multiple airport systems continues to intrigue air transportation planners, urban planners, and policy-makers as researchers attempt to unravel how airlines, air travelers and airports relate to each other. While previous research efforts have typically concentrated on the air travelers' choice of airports, the current thesis addresses how the competi...
متن کاملan Optimum Resource Allocation Model for Airport Passenger Terminals (RESEARCH NOTE)
According to the current Airport planning and design practices, for a given demand level there is a corresponding space requirement. While in practice, there are always trade-offs between cost and levels of service, labor and automation, equipment and fixed facilities, and expansion of existing facilities and the addition of new ones. In this research, the airport passenger Terminal Building (P...
متن کاملAirport Surface Traffic Automation
• Because of a steady increase in air traffic, the Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has instituted a number of programs that are designed to improve safety, reduce delays, and lessen workload intensity for air traffic controllers. The Airport Surface Traffic Automation (ASTA) program, which represents only a small portion of the total FAA effort, uses new tec...
متن کاملGround Delay Programs: Optimizing over the Included Flight Set Based on Distance
The Ground Delay Program (GDP) is an air traffic flow management mechanism used to decrease the rate of in-coming flights into an airport when it is projected that arrival demand will exceed capacity. Under a GDP, a set of flights destined for a single airport is assigned ground delays. In this paper we investigate how the set of flights to which delays are applied is defined. Specifically, we ...
