15.089 Analytics Capstone

Abstract

This report summarizes research performed for our capstone project in collaboration with MIT Lincoln Laboratory (MIT LL), which is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) whose mission is to develop technology in support of national security. Our project was part of the Laboratory's program sponsored by the United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) - an organization within the Department of Defense (DoD) responsible for providing global transportation in service of a variety of DoD missions, including the deployment and sustainment of troops abroad, humanitarian assistance and disaster response, and presidential travel. USTRANSCOM works with its component commands - the Air Forces Air Mobility Command (AMC), the Army's Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC), and the Navy's Military Sealift Command (MSC) to execute missions using air, land, and sea-based modes of transportation. In particular, AMC handles airlift, air refueling, and aeromedical evacuation missions, and in our project, we focused on analytics to support air refueling operations.
