Model Analysis and Expert System Development for Planning and Scheduling Teleoperations for Aircraft Turnaround Functions. Volume 1

Abstract

This report summarizes the results of a 3-year effort to study the planning and scheduling of aircraft turnaround functions using an expert system to minimize the turnaround time. This effort established the feasibility of using expert system technology to model aircraft turnaround functions in a teleoperated environment. The model 'opportunistically' generates schedules based on aircraft turnaround functions (refueling, weapons loading, aircraft inspection, maintenance, etc.) and personnel assignments and automation technologies. The model is conceptualized for a dynamic environment. Thus, it is possible for the model to consult its knowledge base in order to identify scheduling strategies to maximize aircraft turnaround efficiency for a particular function.
