System And Method for Continued Slot Management For Hub-And-Spoke Networks

摘要

A method includes collecting an arrival time preference from suppliers of a hub-and-spoke network; determining an equilibrium arrival time solution for each of the suppliers; determining, using the equilibrium arrival time solution for each of the suppliers, a set of allocated arrival times at a hub for each of the suppliers; collecting an updated arrival time preference from each of the suppliers; determining, using the updated arrival time preference from each of the suppliers, a subsequent equilibrium arrival time solution for the suppliers; determining, using the subsequent equilibrium arrival time solution for each of the suppliers, a subsequent set of allocated arrival times at the hub for each of the suppliers; scheduling, based on the subsequent set of allocated arrival times, an arrival time solution at the hub for each of the suppliers; and outputting, at the hub, the scheduled arrival time solution for each of the suppliers.
