Aircraft Fleet Assignment With Slot Constraints - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18186873 titled 'Aircraft Fleet Assignment With Slot Constraints
The abstract describes a method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for managing slots allocated to an airline. A computer system identifies the slots allocated to the airline and creates a model that describes the relationship of flights in an input flight schedule and the allocated slots subject to constraints. The computer system then generates an output flight schedule using the model to optimize objectives and align flights to the slots.
- Computer system manages slots allocated to an airline
- Identifies allocated slots and creates a model of flight relationships
- Generates an output flight schedule to optimize objectives
- Aligns flights to allocated slots in the output schedule
Potential Applications: - Airline scheduling and slot management systems - Optimization of flight schedules for efficiency and cost-effectiveness
Problems Solved: - Efficient allocation and management of airline slots - Optimization of flight schedules to meet objectives and constraints
Benefits: - Improved efficiency in airline slot management - Cost savings through optimized flight schedules
Commercial Applications: Title: Airline Slot Management System This technology can be used by airlines to streamline their slot allocation process, optimize flight schedules, and improve overall operational efficiency. It can also be valuable for airport authorities and aviation regulators in managing and monitoring slot usage effectively.
Questions about Airline Slot Management System: 1. How does this technology impact the overall efficiency of airline operations? 2. What are the key advantages of using this system for slot management in the aviation industry?
Original Abstract Submitted
A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for managing slots. The slots allocated to an airline are identified by computer system. A model that describes a relationship of flights in an input flight schedule and the slots that have been allocated subject to constraints is created by the computer system. An output flight schedule is created by the computer system using the model to obtain an extrema using a set of objectives. The flights are aligned to the slots in the output flight schedule.
