Abstract

In this paper, the design philosophy as well as the potential for Air Traffic Management research of the NLR Air Traffic Control Research Simulator (Narsim) are outlined. After an introduction on the background of this research, basically being the inadequate capacity of the present-day air traffic management infrastructure, the political as well as the research initiatives which should be taken to solve this problem, are noted. A description of the hardware as well as the software architecture of Narsim is presented together with an object oriented strategy for the analysis and development of air traffic management systems. Finally, the present research programme of Narsim is outlined.
