New traffic management practices, such as A-CDM, based on multi-agent and collaborative decision making concepts have been introduced at airports. However, within the turnaround process of aircraft at airports, ground handling management of aircraft has not been developed specifically in the A-CDM approach, even if it has an important role in the fluidity of aircraft operations at airports. The main objective of this thesis dissertation is to contribute to the organisation of the ground handling management at airports. It consists to provide a structure organize the ground handling management compatible with the A -CDM concept. The proposed structure introduces a ground handling coordinator (GHC) which is considered as an interface for communication between the partners of the A -CDM and the different ground handling managers (GHM). This hierarchical structure allows sharing information with partners in the A -CDM on the one side and on the other side, interacting with ground handling managers (GHM). Decision making processes based on heuristics have been developed at each level of the proposed organization and have been also evaluated in the case of nominal conditions and in the case of the presence of major disruptions. Key words: airport management, ground handling operations, CDM, multi-agent system Résumé La croissance du trafic aérien a rendu critique l’opération de la gestion des plateformes aéroportuaires. Celle-ci fait appel à de nombreux acteurs (autorités aéroportuaires, compagnies aériennes, contrôle du trafic aérien, prestataires de services, …). Le concept d’Airport Collaborative Decision Making (A-CDM) développé depuis une dizaine d’années est basé sur un partage d’informations opérationnelles en temps réel entre les différents acteurs de la plate-forme, permettant de prendre des décisions en commun pour rechercher une utilisation optimale, en toutes conditions, des capacités de l’aéroport. L’objectif principal de cette thèse est de contribuer à l’organisation de la gestion des opérations d’escale dans une plateforme aéroportuaire. Il s’agit de proposer une structure d’organisation de cette opération qui soit compatible avec l’approche A-CDM. La structure proposée introduit un coordinateur des opérations d’escale (GHC) qui joue le rôle d’interface de communication entre les partenaires de l’A-CDM et les différents gestionnaires des opérations d’escale (GHM). Cette structure hiérarchique permet d’une part de partager des informations avec les partenaires de l’A-CDM et d’autre part d’interagir avec les gestionnaires des opérations d’escale (GHM). Les processus de prise de décision basés sur des heuristiques ont été développés à chaque niveau de l’organisation proposée et sont évalués aussi bien dans le cas de conditions nominales que dans le cas de la présence de perturbations majeures.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT Planning can only play a minor part in defining the economic effects of an airport. This is primarily because government policy has prevented the planning system from responding adequately to the impacts or opportunities created by airport development. This study assesses what the economic effects of an airport development are, how they interrelate, and how they manifest themselves in different situations. In order to do this the study draws upon information collected from around the world by many different organisations. The study investigates the difficulties which have been caused by government policy, particularly in terms of the often competing interests of its airports and regional planning objectives. A comprehensive typology of British airports is provided, both in terms of the functions which they perform, and the planning response to them.

Issues around the freight market have largely been underestimated and there are also concerns in the freight industry that the Commission has little understanding of how the air freight market operates or its importance in supporting the UK economy. Air freight accounts for about 40% of UK imports and exports by value. It is an essential enabler for a wide range of industry sectors, handling high value goods, which require rapid, secure and reliable transport to destinations all over the globe.
