NASA RELEASES WASHINGTON AERONAUTICS RESEARCH AWARD
NASA's Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate, Airspace Systems
Program, Washington, has awarded approximately $92,000 to Washington
State University, Pullman, Wash., for work described in their NASA
research announcement proposal entitled “Control-Theoretic Design and
Numerical Evaluation of Traffic Flow Management Strategies Under
Uncertainty."
The award is designed to foster close collaboration with and to
facilitate the exchange of ideas and information among researchers at
NASA, industry, academia, and other government agencies, in a manner
that benefits the nation’s aeronautics community.
The Airspace Systems Program conducts cutting-edge research that will
enable the Next Generation Air Transportation System. In partnership
with the Joint Planning and Development Office, the Airspace Systems
Program will help develop the concepts, capabilities and technologies
that will lead to the significant enhancements in capacity, efficiency
and flexibility needed to meet the nation’s airspace and airportal
requirements for decades to come.
