Existing modality conflict detection approaches do not consider complex condition attributes such as spatial and temporal constraints. An effective authorization propagation rule is n...

A Variable Neighborhood Search approach for the aircraft conflict resolution problem

A metaheuristic approach based on Variable Neighborhood Search to tackle the enroute aircraft conflict resolution problem is presented. The three maneuvers (velocity, heading angle and altitude level variations) are allowed to be performed. Based on geometric rules, we can determine if a conflict situation occurs between each pair of aircraft under consideration. As three different maneuvers co...
