The optimization of airport operations has gained increasing interest by the aeronautical community, due to the substantial growth in the number of airport movements (landings and take-offs) experienced in the past decades all over the world. Forecasts have confirmed this trend also for the next decades. The result of the expansion of air traffic i...

Recent advances in Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity have made IoT devices prone to Cyber attacks. Moreover, vendors are eager to provide autonomous and open source device, which in turn adds more security threat to the system. In this paper, we consider network traffic attack, and provide a Fog-assisted solution, dubbed as FIREWORK , that redu...

Cognitive ability evaluation in intelligent vehicles is conventionally evaluated by classical autonomous driving dataset, which lacks comprehensive annotations of driving difficulty. Realistically, different driving conditions require vast different level of cognitive ability, e.g., driving in highly congested traffic is much more challenging than...

Machine-type communications have suffered serious congestion, overload, and poor quality of service problems in cellular networks, since the cellular networks are designed for human-to-human communications. Moreover, current solutions just focus on the congestion for single base station and cannot adaptively work in the dynamic and complex conditio...

Chapter
The notable growth of air transportation in recent years has led to increasingly congested airports and airspace. Working at nearly maximum capacity involves risks that normally translate into operational disruptions, increasing costs, and lower service quality. Airlines also participate in a highly competitive market, where margins are diminished and streamlined operations are key to reducing their corresponding costs. In this chapter, we review several studies and applications aimed at better managing existing infrastructure and operations. Many of these works are focused on efficiently assigning resources to release unused capacity, reduce costs, and increase systems' resilience to unexpected events for sustainable transport infrastructure development. We also explore several initiatives proposed to enhance airspace capacity (e.g., SESAR program), while reducing at the same time operational and environmental costs. Efficient management, together with these initiatives, is key to ensuring sustainable growth of the aviation sector in the next few decades.
