Optimization and Multi-Stakeholder Objectives for Air Transportation
Systems
Hamsa Balakrishnan
Assistant Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Engineering
Systems
Noon–1:30 pm
E51-145
The design and operation of air transportation systems pose many
control and optimization challenges. We would like to increase the
efficiency of operations and their robustness, but need to take into
account other stakeholder objectives such as maintaining safety and
limiting environmental impact. This talk will discuss the challenges
posed by uncertainty due to weather, airline competition and
environmental concerns.
Bring brown bag lunch; light refreshments provided.
