SUMMARY:Air Transportation 'Factory': Processes\, Challenges and Methods -
  Dr Goran Stojkovic (Boeing Digital Aviation and Analytics)
DTSTART:20190214T113000Z

CONTACT:Shuya Zhong
DESCRIPTION:As in manufacturing\, air transportation needs to anticipate\,
  plan\, monitor and adjust the production: transporting passengers and car
 go from origins to their destinations. Broken production/operation results
  in deviations from the nominal airline operations plan and can cause\, am
 ong others\, flight delays\, passenger discomfort and disturbances to main
 tenance and crew schedules. Even when disruptions are perceived as minor\,
  they can propagate across air transportation network very quickly and aff
 ect other flights\, airports\, airlines and airspace. The seminar provides
  brief introduction to major business process in planning\, operations and
  post-operations. The emphasis is on dependencies between these processes\
 , the value of their alignment and methods and algorithms used in practice
  to maximize operational efficiency. Boeing is working with the University
  of Cambridge (UK) to develop prototype tools to support the decision maki
 ng process for managing such disruptions. Brief description of the project
  and highlight of main accomplishments will be presented as well.
