چکیده

In this paper we present an optimisation model for airport taxi scheduling. We introduce a mixed-integer programming formulation to represent the movement of aircraft on the surface of the airport. In the optimal schedule delays due to taxi conflicts are minimised. We discuss implementation issues for solving this optimisation problem. Numerical results with real data of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol demonstrate that the algorithms lead to significant improvements of the efficiency with reasonable computational effort.

Taxi Time Prediction at Charlotte Airport Using Fast-Time Simulation and Machine Learning Techniques

Accurate taxi time prediction is required for enabling efficient runway scheduling that can increase runway throughput and reduce taxi times and fuel consumptions on the airport surface. Currently NASA and American Airlines are jointly developing a decision-support tool called Spot and Runway Departure Advisor (SARDA) that assists airport ramp controllers to make gate pushback decisions and imp...

Genetic algorithms for management of taxi scheduling

The increased amount of flights in airports has caused serious problems for passengers and airlines, and brings risks to the system of ground traffic. The sequencing of taxi management is responsible for coordinating the process of rolling the aircraft from gate to track, or conversely, depending on the procedure for takeoff or landing. In this paper, it presents an optimization solution of tax...

An Optimization Model for Reducing Aircraft Taxi times at the Dallas Fort worth International Airport

This paper presents an optimization model for an aircraft taxi-scheduling problem that arises on the surface of airports. Though formulations are already available for this problem in the literature, they either ignore aircraft type or do not include all the safety constraints that are required to keep any two aircraft separated by a minimum distance at any time instant. The proposed model impr...

A Mixed Integer Linear Program for Solving a Multiple Route Taxi Scheduling Problem

Aircraft movements on taxiways at busy airports often create bottlenecks. This paper introduces a mixed integer linear program to solve a Multiple Route Aircraft Taxi Scheduling Problem. The outputs of the model are in the form of optimal taxi schedules, which include routing decisions for taxiing aircraft. The model extends an existing single route formulation to include routing decisions. An ...

Optimal Airport Surface Traffic Planning Using Mixed-Integer Linear Programming

We describe an ongoing research effort pertaining to the development of a surface traffic automation system that will help controllers to better coordinate surface traffic movements related to arrival and departure traffic. More specifically, we describe the concept for a taxi-planning support tool that aims to optimize the routing and scheduling of airport surface traffic in such a way as to d...
