Managing Airline Networks

Managing Airline Networks: Design, Integration and Innovative Technologies is a fully comprehensive description of state-of-the-art network management practices at airlines. Designed as a compendium on current practices and future trends in the field, the book offers an instructive guide through the complex world of non-linear production systems. Written by a renowned consultant and aviation expert, the book discusses the impact of network management on airline resource planning and performance, and examines the interplay between network management and adjacent functions. The book includes a practical case study and is enriched with academic perspectives. Discussing upcoming trends in the sector, the book provides an outlook on advanced technologies that may play a role in next-generation network management. Features include: a description of basic network types, performance indicators for profitable networks, efficient processes and success factors for network management, and common optimisation models and tools; descriptive overviews, supported by practical examples, and leading to a deep-dive case study; a section on trends in network management, outlining new demand forecasting models, ‘big data’ applications, machine learning and AI use cases, and alternative optimisation models for airlines. Managing Airline Networks: Design, Integration and Innovative Technologies is designed as a comprehensive compendium and is essential reading for both aviation practitioners and students of airline management.
Airline Operations and Delay Management

Airline Operations and Delay Management fills a gap within the area of airline schedule planning by addressing the close relationships between network development, economic driving forces, schedule demands and operational complexity. The pursuit of robust airline scheduling and reliable airline operations is discussed in light of the future trends of airline scheduling and technology applications in airline operations. The book extensively explores the subject from the perspectives of airline economics, airline network development and airline scheduling practices. Many operational issues and problems are the inevitable consequences of airline network development and scheduling philosophy, so a wide perspective is essential to address airline operations in their proper context. The influence of airline network development on schedule planning and operations driven by economic forces and relaxed regulations is thoroughly examined for different types of operations in aviation such as network carriers and low-cost carriers. The advantages and disadvantages of running different networks and schedules are discussed and illustrated with real airline examples. In addition, this book provides readers with various mathematical models for solving different issues in airline operations and delay management. Airline Operations and Delay Management is ideal for senior undergraduate students as an introductory book on airline operations. The more advanced materials included in this book regarding modeling airline operations are suitable for postgraduate students, advanced readers and professionals interested in modeling and solving airline operational problems.
Spatial Networking in the United Physical, Virtual, and Mental World

The current book chooses graphs and networks as primary and global research objectives after reviewing different types and areas of networking and existing works on graph and network operations. The ideas of this book originate from the WAVE approach which allowed us, more than half a century ago, to implement citywide heterogeneous computer networks and solve distributed problems on them in flexible and mobile way. The invented management paradigm evolved into Spatial Grasp Technology resulted in European patent and nine previous books oriented on concrete applications in social and defense systems, security, crises management, collective robotics, space research, and others. Many obtained results were dealing with graph and network structures and problems which were extremely important in the researched areas. It aims at development of higher-level social infrastructures effectively integrating different types of networking under the same universal approach, also application of networking in new areas like organoids and brain research. This book is oriented toward system scientists, application programmers, industry managers, university students, philosophers, psychologists, and United Nations personnel too.
