The competitors in the airline industry often rely on pricing strategy to capture more sales as a main mean of competition. Thus, dynamic pricing is often utilized to maximize profit while allowing better pricing against competition at the same time. In order for dynamic pricing to be effective, airline company has to take in consideration both internal and external information. Tactical pricin...

Changes in the U.S. domestic airline route system have increased competition between international gateways. To assist in understanding this phenomenon, a system of models that predicts airline passenger flows resulting from different airline gateway hubbing strategies has been developed. The calibrated rnodels predict baseline passenger Mows quite accurately. The system was then used to projec...

The development of effective feedback mechanisms between operations and training is an essential predicate to enhancing safety and improving efficiency in any organisation. With the constant demands to streamline training, the design of training programs that adequately reflect operational needs is paramount. This paper describes the use of new observational methodologies in the integrated eval...

The Airline industry faces various issues and difficulties related to its management, which have a peculiar and a complex solution. The objective of this paper is to introduce new and simplified methodologies for improving the airline sector by introducing cost efficient and relatively high payout services. In this paper, we have applied strategic sharing of modules in service family design usi...

The problem of adaptive stochastic airline seat inventory control lies at the heart of airline revenue management. This problem concerns the allocation of the finite seat inventory to the stochastic customer demand that occurs over time before the flight is scheduled to depart. The objective is to find the right combination of customers of various fare classes on the flight such that revenue is...

Due to the continuous growth of air traffic and development aviation systems, current safety management methodologies should be improved upgraded. Safety systems help organizations manage, maintain increase efficiently. The focus research is on predictive methodology upgrade reactive proactive improve overall level in organizations. Predictive methods are used various sectors (air navigation se...

This report is an overview of the eld of object oriented programming. It presents a brief historical perspective of the eld, then summarizes some major achievements. Four strategic research directions are then presented: technologiesintegration,software components, distributedprogramming, and open implementations. Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a technique for improving productivity, qual...

When recovering from operational problems, the Airline Operations Control Centre (AOCC) usually tries to minimize direct operational costs while satisfying all the required rules. In this paper we present the implementation of a Distributed Multi-Agent System (MAS) representing the existing real-life roles in an AOCC. This MAS includes software agents that cooperate through a distributed proble...

The purpose of this master thesis was to examine the usability of an Operations Monitor for crew controllers at an airline. The comprehensive question of issue was how the Operations Monitor should be designed in appearance, interaction and functionality to support the users in an airlines operations control room. The background to the purpose is a EU-project called Descartes using development ...

A large fraction of flight operations in the global commercial aviation system are conducted using a mixture of English and some other language(s). We examine the institutional factors that create this situation and the language practices adopted by non-native English speaking pilots to adapt within a complex ecology of constraints on language usage. We focus on an especially complex case, that...
