Abstract:

This presentation discusses EUROCONTROL's efforts to enhance airport capacity through fast-time simulation modeling. The lack of European airspace and airport capacity and increase in delays has led to the use and development of more comprehensive simulation modeling tools. EUROCONTROL is a governmental agency consisting of 28 European states established 30 years ago to better manage the en-route airspace. In 1997, EUROCONTROL further extended its functions to include "gate-to-gate" operations. The presentation also pays attention to the problem of capacity limitations and suggests several alternative solutions to increase capacity. In addition, the presentation addresses and summarizes common problems that simulation modelers face. The last part of the presentation offers three application examples.
