Performance Based ATM Design

All research in ATM today are directed towards a performanced based design. Developing a methodology for performance assessement has become paramount for the future ATM design. Another apsect to this is setting up a common platform that holds a unified set of indicators that can be used across board by all interested stakeholder. General indicators for higher level assessments and specific indicators customised to operational stakeholders will be a step to ensure a continous assessment of the ATM system.

An approach being investigated to align indicators with interest and heirachy in the ATM system (SESAR project as our initial focus) is by using classification methods to optimise performance metrics.
