In this study, we set the average taxi time of flight as the objective of the gate and runway assignment problem. We present a gate and runway combinatorial optimization model with several restrictions such as restrictions of gate and runway time, type of aircraft and service. We design a Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization (DPSO) algorithm to solve this problem. Inspired by the genetic algori...

Optimizing gate scheduling at airports is an old, but also a broad problem. The main purpose of this problem is to find an assignment for the flights arriving at and departing from an airport, while satisfying a set of constraints.A closer look at the literature in this research line shows thatin almost all studies airport gate processing time has been considered as a fix parameter. In this res...

In this study, we consider an airport gate assignment problem that assigns a set of aircraft to gates. The cannot be assigned any are directed apron. We aim make aircraft-gate assignments so as minimize the number apron and among usage minimizing solutions, total walking distance travelled by all passengers. is formulated mixed-integer nonlinear programming model then it linearized. A branch bo...

In a gate level n-value compiled simulator, the time necessary to propagate a given signal through a gate is of fundamental importance for the speed of the system. This propagation time is minimized when the boolean equations that drive the simulator are minimized. These Boolean equations are generated from the truth tables for AND and OR gates. Therefore there is no unique best assignment for ...

Passengers’ experience is becoming a key metric to evaluate the air transportation system’s performance. Efficient and robust tools to handle airport operations are needed along with a better understanding of passengers’ interests and concerns. Among various airport operations, this paper studies airport gate scheduling for improved passengers’ experience. Three objectives accounting for passen...

Discrete gate sizing and threshold assignment are commonly used tools for optimizing digital circuits, and ideal methods for incremental optimization. The gate widths and threshold voltages, along with the gate lengths, can be adjusted to optimize power and delay. This monograph surveys this field, providing the background needed to perform research in the field. Concepts such as standard cell ...
