    • Automation of airlift scheduling for the upgraded command and control system of military airlift command 

      Simpson, R. W.; Mathaisel, Dennis F. X. (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1984], 1984)
      This report describes a conceptual design for automation of the scheduling of airlift activities as part of the current upgrade of the MAC C2 System. It defines the airlift scheduling problem in generic terms before reviewing ...

    • A generalized model for the prediction of controller intervention rates in the en route air traffic control system 

      MacDonald, Bruce A. (Cambridge, Mass. : Dept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Flight Transportation Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1986, 1986)
      A generalized model of the domestic en route air traffic control system is constructed, which can be used to predict the rate at which controllers will need to intervene in the flow of radar-controlled traffic to prevent ...

    • Aviation safety analysis 

      Ausrotas, Raymond A.; Hansman, Robert John. (Cambridge, Mass : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1984], 1984)
      Introduction: Just as the aviation system is complex and interrelated, so is aviation safety. Aviation safety involves design of aircraft and airports, training of ground personnel and flight crew members' maintenance of ...
