Why is it important?

The NASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate is exploring the roles of various portfolios of technology investments as to relevance for future needs of the next generation national air transportation system (NextGen).

Perspectives

Agent-based modeling of projected demand for air transportation offers a uniquely valuable tool for understanding the effects of multiple strategic forces (fuel prices and demographics for example) and constraints (airspace capacities as affected by future technologies) on the ability of national investments to produce a return.
