Discuss key decisions made early in the project by the project manager 6. Relate some of the early events in ResNet to concepts described in previous chapters 7. Discuss some of the major events early in the project that helped set the stage for project success ay Beauchine became Vice President of Reservations at Northwest F Airlines (NWA) in 1992. One area that had continually lost money for the company was the reservations call center. Fay developed a new vision and philosophy for the reservations call center that was instrumental in turning this area around. She persuaded people to understand that they needed to focus on sales and not just service. Instead of monitoring the number of calls and length of calls, it was much more important to focus on the number of sales made through the call centers. If potential customers were calling NWA directly, booking the sale at that time was in the best interest of both the customer and the airline. Additionally, a direct sale with the customer saved NWA 13 percent on the commission fees paid to travel agents and another 18 percent for related overhead costs. 12 Chapter A4148 23218 6/8/01 6:25 PM Page 362 362 I CHAPTER 12 Fay knew that developing a new information system was critical to implementing a vision that focused on sales rather than service, and she wanted to sponsor this new information system.

It begins by examining the needs and objectives of such a system. It then discusses existing reservation and non-reservation computer systems that are relevant to the design of the ORS. The design of the system is then presented, analyzing the different software components that make up the system. It also discusses data structures, protocols, and algorithms that the system uses. After the design, the implementation of the design is discussed. Following, is the test analysis section which discusses whether the ORS met its objectives.

  • Robust Airline Scheduling and Disruption Management
    Robust Airline Scheduling and Disruption Management Sophie Kenrick Dickson Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Mathematics and Statistics THE UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE November 2013 Copyright c 2013 Sophie Kenrick Dickson All rights reserved. No part of the publication may be reproduced in any form by print, photoprint, microfilm or any other means without written permission from the author. Abstract IRLINE scheduling is traditionally concerned with developing a plan that is most A profitable, and is usually done under conditions that are assumed to be known. In reality, however, airline operations are subject to uncertainty such as weather, traffic and equipment failure which cause disruption to passengers. In this thesis, we explore ways to design schedules that are robust to disruption as well as approaches for recovering once disruption has occurred. We formulate these problems as Integer Programming models. Most of these models are difficult to solve and require specialised IP solution approaches to solve them in a reasonable time frame. For both the robust schedule design and recovery problems, computational results are presented to explore the computational efficiency of the solution approaches developed, as well as results demonstrating the quality of the solutions obtained. Using the robust schedule design methodology developed, we analyse the resulting schedules to generate insights into where slack time is best allocated to maximise its effectiveness. For both problems, we also investigate the underlying structure of the Integer Programs to understand the conditions under which an integer valued optimum will be obtained when solving the linear relaxation.
