Using Game Theory for Los Angeles Airport Security

Security at major locations of economic or political importance is a key concern around the world, particularly given the threat of terrorism. Limited security resources prevent full security coverage at all times, which allows adversaries to observe and exploit patterns in selective patrolling or monitoring, e.g. they can plan an attack avoiding existing patrols. Hence, randomized patrolling o...

GUARDS - Innovative Application of Game Theory for National Airport Security

We describe an innovative application of a novel game-theoretic approach for a national scale security deployment. Working with the United States Transportation Security Administration (TSA), we have developed a new application called GUARDS to allocate the TSA’s limited resources across hundreds of security activities to provide protection at over 400 United States airports. Similar security a...

Agent-based Evacuation Modeling: Simulating the Los Angeles International Airport

Introduction In the aftermath of a terrorist attack on a large public venue such as an airport, a train station, or a theme park, rapid but safe evacuation is critical. For example, multiple IED explosions at the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) will require evacuation of thousands of travelers and airport staff, while mitigating the risks from possible secondary explosions. In such case...
