Joint Air Traffic Flow and Capacity Management via Answer Set Programming
Operational Air Traffic Flow and Capacity Management (ATFCM) balances flight demand with available sector capacity, to ensure safe and efficient operations. Mathematical models enhance operational ATFCM performance by framing demand-capacity balancing as an optimization problem, maximizing efficiency while adhering to safety constraints. However, SOTA research optimizes the aircraft trajectories (called ATFM) or the sector configuration (called DAC) separately. This leaves a research gap of whether joint optimization of ATFM and DAC can bring benefits. We partially address this limitation by introducing a joint ATFCM model with an encoding in Answer Set Programming (ASP). The ASP implemen...
