At the EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre (EEC), the objective of the "Models, Tools, and Simulators" work package is to:
- develop, and maintain, a set of software and hardware validation tools for use in the validation activities at the EEC, and
- drive the development of a coherent European research and validation infrastructure consistent with the requirements of the "SESAR" (Single European Sky ATM Research) programme.
|
|
|
|
This work package is split into 6 areas, namely:
|
| |
 |
Aircraft Performance Model |
| |
|
ATFCM Modelling Tools |
| |
|
Fast-time Simulation Tools |
| |
|
Real-time Simulation Tools |
| |
|
Software Engineering |
| |
 |

|
The "European Validation Infrastructure" initiative |
In order to anticipate the needs for the validation activities of the "SESAR" programme, the EVI (European
Validation Infrastructure) initiative was launched.
| |
|
The "SESAR" programme |
|
|
The major actors from the ATM research community were brought together to identify the infrastructure needed to support:
- the validation of the ATM operational concept, and
- the assessment of the performance of the ATM operational concept
|
|
|
whilst ensuring compliance with the E-OCVM (European Operational Concept Validation Methodology).
| |
|
The E-OCVM |
|
|
The scope of the EVI is:
- all ground and airborne ATM elements,
- all current and future ATM concepts, and
|
|
|
This covers a wide range of simulations and modelling facilities, such as:
- analytical performance models,
- analytical measurement methods and tools,
- automatic/fast-time simulation tools,
- human-in-the-loop simulation platforms (real-time simulations), and
- field experiment platforms
|
|
|
that have been, or are being, developed and operated within various organisations in Europe.
