“…Jadex was useful for agent model specification and simulation control, although we found certain problems (partial documentation and a number of execution errors) that should be solved in a more mature version of this tool. Future research on the reusability of agent models for ATM systems can explore the use of declarative languages for agent model specification (such as XML) in combination with standard ontologies concerning ATM systems [16]. This combination can be used to provide more usable general models with representations that are closer to the ATM domain.…”

Abstract. The SESAR (Single European Sky ATM Research) program is an ambitious research and development initiative to design the future European air traffic management (ATM) system. The study of the behavior of ATM systems using agent-based modeling and simulation tools can help the development of new methods to improve their performance. This paper presents an overview of existing agent-based approaches in air transportation (paying special attention to the challenges that exist for the design of future ATM systems) and, subsequently, describes a new agent-based approach that we proposed in the CASSIOPEIA project, which was developed according to the goals of the SESAR program. In our approach, we use agent models for different ATM stakeholders, and, in contrast to previous work, our solution models new collaborative decision processes for flow traffic management, it uses an intermediate level of abstraction (useful for simulations at larger scales), and was designed to be a practical tool (open and reusable) for the development of different ATM studies. It was successfully applied in three studies related to the design of future ATM systems in Europe.

“…In [9], the researchers aimed to use OTA messages and generate a new ontology for air travels as well. In [10], the researchers attempted to manage air traffic by information sharing, which was carried out by various ontologies. For instance, information of ontology was used for indexing and searching, while a different ontology was applied to prevent accidents and traffic alerts, and another case was exploited to run a system.…”

The analysis of various data is a challenging issue in the field of air traffic flow management (ATFM). Managing a large volume of data and their correct interpretation plays a key role in the prevention of air accidents, human errors, and flight interactions. In general, pilots and flight navigators deal with massive and variety information, including flight safety messages, meteorological messages, aviation notes for air man (NOTAMs) and etc. Therefore relationship between Heterogeneous big data is problem. Recently, the semantic web has been recognized as a novel foundation of knowledge management that relies on ontology (concept modeling language). The present study aimed to propose an efficient infrastructure for ATMs by defining the concepts, rules, and relationships between the concepts related to the scope of flight information. To this end, we designed and implemented the ontology of flight safety messages, which included an important part of flight operation information. In this research, the internet protocol suite (IPS)-based aviation networks and methontology methodology were exploited for the engineering of the ontology of flight messages. In addition, the implementation process was carried out using the Protégé software. The analysis of the system was performed using the actual data of Mashhad Airport, Iran. Finally, the implementation of the ontology of flight messages was demonstrated after a case study of several flight examples. The developed ontology could be incorporated into the foundation of an aeronautical telecommunication network (ATN) aviation network as an application.

“…Reiss et al (2006) refer to the phases-of-flight described by Travers (2000) to enable a user-oriented description of the fragmented sequential phases a flight crew must go through for the accomplishment of a mission. However, the amount of existing taxonomies and ontologies in aeronautics is extremely diverse, as it is the case of route planning (Liu et al, 2009, Niaraki & Kim, 2009, traffic flow management (van Putten et al, 2008), flight simulator fidelity evaluation (Durak et al, 2014), aircraft assembly (Hongjung et al, 2007), aircraft fault knowledge (Yi et al, 2009, Zhou & Li, 2011 or maintenance task support (Brusilovsky & Cooper, 2002, Wu et al, 2014, among others.…”

The process of building the upper-level hierarchy for the aircraft structure ontology to be integrated in FunGramKB

In this article we collect a corpus of texts which operate with a controlled language (ASD Simplified Technical English) in order to facilitate the development of a new domain-specific ontology (the aircraft structure) based on a technical discipline (aeronautical engineering) included in the so called "hard" sciences. This new repository should be compatible with the Core Ontology and the corresponding English Lexicon in FunGramKB (a multipurpose lexico-conceptual knowledge base for natural language processing (NLP)), and, in the same vein, should eventually give support to aircraft maintenance management systems. By contrast, in previous approaches we applied a stepwise methodology for the construction of a domain-specific subontology compatible with FunGramKB systems in criminal law, but the high occurrence of terminological banalisation and the scarce number of specific terms, due to the social nature of the discipline, were added problems to the most common NLP difficulties (polysemy and ambiguity). Taking into consideration previous results and the complexity of this task, here we only intend to take the first step towards the modelling of the aircraft ontology: the development of its taxonomic hierarchy. Consequently, the hierarchy starts with the whole system (i.e., an aircraft) and follows the traditional decomposition of the system down to the elementary components (top-down approach). At the same time,
