OPAL (Optimization Platform for Airports including Landside), through its simulation and evaluation capabilities, supports decision making by airport authorities, airlines, air traffic service providers, and governments. It provides this decision support in the form of a facility for distributed simulation into which several airport performance models can be integrated. The objective of this workshop presentation was twofold: 1) to introduce the concept of total airport analysis, and 2) to explain the architecture proposed for the integration of analytical and simulation models in simultaneously studying airside and landside operations.
