Air Traffic

 

Let's open airTraffic sample.

Select in the main toolbar, then open msl_ballistic.db in data/db/samples/opengl/airtraffic

Once loaded, your application will looks like below:

 

This simulation combines logic and knowledge in order to manage an air traffic situation where every approaching aircraft request a landing authorization to the tower.
The tower piles up the request and dispatch the aircraft on the various holding patterns. It also manage departing requests. Separation between aircrafts, priorities, taxi way and holding patterns occupation are used by the knowledge algorithms to manage the area.

 

Simple approach logic with request to land or, if negative, rerouting into an holding stack:

Simple rule example used by a knowledge context to clear or not a specific runway according to various conditions (premises) :

 

 

Recompile than start the demo the normal way.

Once the OpenGL windows appear, click on Start button.
Use the speed slider to adjust the simulation speed.
