Modelling and Managing Airport Performance

Informationen zum Autor Konstantinos G. Zografos is Chair Professor and Director of Research, at the Department of Management Science, Lancaster University Management School. His areas of teaching and research interest are supply chain management, project management, intermodal terminal operations and airport planning and operations. He consults with industry, has won many awards for his activities within operations research and is a member of the editorial board for several peer review journals. Giovanni Andreatta is Professor of Operations Research in the Department of Pure and Applied Mathematics at the University of Padova. His teaching and research interests lie within operations research, mathematical planning and optimization. Amedeo R. Odoni is Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics and of Civil and Environmental Engineering. He has also served as Co-Director of MIT's Operations Research Center, as Co-Director of the FAA's National Center of Excellence in Aviation Education, and as Editor of the scholarly journal Transportation Science . He is the author, co-author or editor of 8 books and about 100 technical papers. Among other distinctions, he is the recipient of the FAA's National Award for Excellence in Aviation Education, the INFORMS Robert F. Herman Award for Lifetime Contributions to Transportation Science and several awards for excellence in teaching. Professor Odoni's recent textbook, Airport Systems: Planning, Design and Management is a standard reference on airport planning and operations. Klappentext Modelling and Managing Airport Performance provides an integrated view of state-of-the-art research on measuring and improving the performance of airport systems with consideration of both airside and landside operations. The considered facets of performance include capacity, delays, economic costs, noise, emissions and safety. Several of the contributions also examine policies for managing congestion and allocating sparse capacity, as well as for mitigating the externalities of noise, emissions, and safety/risk.Key features: Provides a global perspective with contributing authors from Europe, North and South America with backgrounds in academia, research institutions, government, and industry Contributes to the definition, interpretation, and shared understanding of airport performance measures and related concepts Considers a broad range of measures that quantify operational and environmental performance, as well as safety and risk Discusses concepts and strategies for dealing with the management of airport performance Presents state-of-the-art modelling capabilities and identifies future modelling needsThemed around 3 sections - Modelling Airport Performance, Assessing Airport Impacts, and Managing Airport Performance and Congestion Modelling and Managing Airport Performance is a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners in the global air transportation community.
