POM research topics

Participation to major ATM projects

ATM : Air Traffic Management

• SESAR
• ERASMUS
• Episode 3
• iFly

Current ATM research projects

These projects are not of the same order of size than the previous ones. Each project involves one or two researchers or Ph.D. candidates from the POM team, working on a given subject.

• ATOS: Airport simulator
• CASSOS: Optimization of airspace sectors configurations
• CATS: Fast-time simulation and performance assessments
• ERCOS: Centralized automatic conflict detection and resolution
• PREDICT: Trajectory prediction benchmarking
• SAGES: Détection et résolution de conflits en utilisant de la régulation en vitesse
• S2D2: Assessment of air traffic complexity indicators

Former projects

For memory, here is the list of past research projects in which the POM team was involed in the recent years :

• CREED: Air traffic complexity and perception of conflicts by the controller
• FABOP: Cut the european airspace into functional airspace blocks
• FACES: Free Flight autonomous conflict detection and resolution
• HEATS-3D: 3D-trajectories network design
• HEATS-4D: 4D-trajectories separation for clusters of aircraft
• NAT: Aircraft trajectory prediction using neural networks
• ROUND: Routes network design and airspace sectorization, using Delaunay triangulation and Voronoï diagrams
• SARGe: Automatic route generator

Global optimization

• Genetic algorithms
• Interval Computation and Branch and Bound
• A* algorithms

Learning methods
