This paper explores the use of a learning classifier system variant, XCS, in learning effective airline decision rules within the context of a multiagent team simulation. From this study a general approach to modeling an airline market has been developed based on a multi-agent, team-based concept. Additionally, several preliminary trials of the simulation have been executed.

Airlines operating in Turkey strive to be international leaders their segments by adopting different competitive strategies. The crew planning department plays an active role achieving the goals of airline. In this study, departments airline companies that adopt two strategies are compared and differences they encounter practice revealed.

This study presents an optimization model that uses stochastic programming to optimally allocate seats and maximize the profit of airline, considering overbooking. Airline seat inventory control involves selling right people at time. If airline sells tickets on a first-come, first-serve basis, it is likely be occupied by leisure travelers late bookers. Therefore, business willing pay higher far...

This manuscript describes vertical profiles of aerosol number density over Arctic during spring and summer and presents authentic and original scientific material that has relevant implications for atmospheric science (aerosol, clouds, CCN, and others). This study is based on very important aerosol data over Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard, although the tethered-balloon-borne aerosol measurements are rest...

This Essay is about air transport and EC competition Law. The air transport industry has, in many countries, developed as a mixture of public utility and commercial venture. With the deregulation of the airline market, the EC Commission has also, to an increasing extent, become involved in the competition aspects of the airline industry. Part I deals with the transportation industry. Part II di...

Plans for NextGen include the implementation of Net-Centric Operations (NCO) as the underlying mechanism to more effectively manage National Air Transportation System (NAS) resources. NCO mechanisms will provide the means for all agents operating in the NAS to self-synchronize in the presence of changing situations and probabilistic forecasts. Applications of NCO in other domains (e.g. military...

Introduction: Most of previous studies on dyslipidemia among pilots were cross-sectional surveys which cannot explore the temporal trend of dyslipidemia, and these studies were normally conducted at least five years ago. In addition, studies focusing on pilots in Southwest China are scarce. This study aimed to describe the prevalence of and trends in dyslipidemia among pilots f...
