Projects

Masdima: Multi-agent System for Disruption Management, helps the IOCC operators, to manage disruptions and give a global vision and monitoring of the airline operations, i.e., flights, aircraft (including maintenance), crew and passengers and, at the same time, improve punctuality, reduce costs and increase passenger’s satisfaction.
Detects events, assess the impact of the events on the operation, generates and selects the best solution to recover from the disruptions (for example, by rescheduling resources). The optimisation is accomplished through a reinforcement learning agent based negotiation.
