Capacity-based Arrival Sequencing and Trajectory Optimization for Continuous Descent Operations

Due to the rapid growth of air traffic and the corresponding increase in demanded landing capacity of airports, much research has been done on arrival scheduling and approach trajectory optimization aiming to not only maximize the effective runway throughput of an airports runway system but also significantly reduce fuel consumption. This thesis...

Compiler Strategies for Transport Triggered Architectures

Compiler technology plays an important role to enhance the performance of modern microprocessors. In this thesis, compiler techniques and strategies are described to enhance the performance of microprocessors based on the Transport Triggered Architecture. The interaction between two important phases in a compiler, instruction scheduling and...
