Abstract:
As the air transportation system's capacity increase has not met the rapid growth in demand, maximizing the utilization of the infrastructure is preferred over expanding it. To make the most efficient use of the existing resources, it is then necessary to develop and implement advanced technologies. This book covers information technology applications in air transportation with multi-disciplinary contributions from the areas of information technology involving air traffic control, airport design, airline management, and operations.
