  • Project name: Aircraft boarding methods
  • Class: 4IT496 Simulation of Systems (WS 2014/2015)
  • Author: Dinara Mansurova
  • Model type: Agent-based simulation
  • Software used: NetLogo

Problem definition

This simulation explores different methods of aircraft boardings. Airports serves thousands of people every day and one of the main problems they meet is the efficient boarding of passengers.

Exists several methods of boarding:

- random (which is widely used, the most common): people just taking their seats without any specific order

- WMA (Windows-Middle-Aisle) - boarding is divided into three groups: seats near the windows, middle seats and aisle seats. The first boarding group is windows then middle and finally the aisle group.

- Back-front WMA: we divide groups in the same way as in WMA, but the only difference, that we sort passengers in decreasing order. For each group boadring starts from back of the plane.

Goal

To simulate different boarding scenarious and try to find out the optimal one.
