The objective of the research is to develop tools for comprehensive design and optimization of air traffic flow management capabilities at multiple spatial and temporal resolutions: a national airspace-wide scale and one-day time horizon (strategic time-frame); and at a regional scale (of one or a few Centers) and a two-hour time horizon (tactical time-frame). The approach is to develop a suite of tools for designing complex multi-scale dynamical networks, and in turn to use these tools to comprehensively address the strategic-to-tactical traffic flow management problem. The two directions in tool development include 1) the meshed modeling/design of flow- and queueing-networks under network topology variation for cyber- and physical- resource allocation, and 2) large-scale network simulation and numerical analysis. This research will yield aggregate modeling, management design, and validation tools for multi-scale dynamical infrastructure networks, and comprehensive solutions for national-wide strategic-to-tactical traffic flow management using these tools. The broader impact of the research lies in the significant improvement in cost and equity that may be achieved by the National Airspace System customers, and in the introduction of systematic tools for infrastructure-network design that will have impact not only in transportation but in fields such as electric power network control and health-infrastructure design. The development of an Infrastructure Network Ideas Cluster will enhance inter-disciplinary collaboration on the project topics and discussion of their potential societal impact. Activities of the cluster include cross-university undergraduate research training, seminars on technological and societal-impact aspects of the project, and new course development.

该研究的目的是在多个空间和时间分辨率下开发空中交通流量管理能力的综合设计和优化工具：全国空域范围和一天时间范围（战略时间框架）;以及区域范围（一个或几个中心）和两小时时间范围（战术时间框架）。该方法是开发一套工具来设计复杂的多尺度动态网络，并反过来使用这些工具来全面解决战略战术交通流管理问题。工具开发的两个方向包括：1）网络拓扑变化下的流和流网络的网格化建模/设计，用于网络和物理资源分配，以及2）大规模网络仿真和数值分析。这项研究将产生多尺度动态基础设施网络的聚合建模，管理设计和验证工具，以及使用这些工具进行全国范围的战略到战术交通流管理的综合解决方案。该研究的更广泛影响在于国家空域系统客户可能实现的成本和公平性的显着改善，以及基础设施网络设计的系统工具的引入，这些工具不仅会对运输产生影响，而且会对电力网络控制和健康基础设施设计等领域产生影响。基础设施网络创意集群的发展将加强项目主题的跨学科合作，并讨论其潜在的社会影响。该小组的活动包括跨大学本科生研究培训、关于该项目的技术和社会影响方面的研讨会以及新课程开发。
