HighlightsWe integrate the Ground Routing Problem (GRP) and the Runway Sequencing Problem (RSP).A new formulation of the RSP including stand area conflicts is proposed.Computation times are shorter than the state of the art.Integrating RSP and GRP reduces the total completion and taxi times.
AbstractThe Ground Routing Problem focuses on finding the optimal routing of aircraft from parking stands to runways. The Runway Sequencing Problem consists in ordering the sequence of takes-offs and landings on runways. We study the integration of these two problems with the aim of simultaneously increasing runway efficiency and reducing taxi times. We propose a heuristic sequential approach based on a novel mathematical formulation. We test our methods using real data of a major European airport. Our approach significantly reduces the total completion and taxi times within reasonable computation times, making it viable to be used in daily operations.
