OVERVIEW OF AIRPORT TERMINAL SIMULATION MODELS

Airport terminal simulation models developed in academia, industry, and government are surveyed. An overview is presented of modeling and simulation including definitions, conceptual approaches to modeling, and types of simulation techniques and simulation languages used for airport landside simulation. Desirable technical properties of airport terminal simulation systems are discussed. Three simulation approaches considered most suitable to model airport terminals are reviewed and their use is discussed in detail.
