The main objective of the ASAP project is to develop planning and optimization models and tools and performing 2 analyses that will contribute to the effectiveness and efficiency of the existing Airport Slot Allocation Process. Specifically, the ASAP project and other related research activities aim to support the slot allocation process by

  • developing decision-making support tools to support slot coordination entities, and
  • analyzing what-if scenarios to simulate and assess potential adjustments to the Worldwide Slot Guidelines.

For this purpose, it is critical to engage with diverse and representative stakeholders through the research activities to obtain feedback on the approach and results, and ensure consistency with current and future practice.
