Abstract

When an aircraft is approaching an airport, it gets a short time interval called a slot by Air Traffic Control that it can use to land. If the landing of the aircraft is delayed for some reason, it loses its slot and Airline Operation Controllers have to assign it a new one. However, landing slots are a scarce resource of the airports and, in order to avoid that an aircraft waits too long, Airline Operation Controllers have to regularly modify the assignment of slots to the aircraft. Due to the system implemented to exchange slots, controllers can modify the slot-assignment using only two kinds of operations: either assign a slot that was free to aircraft A, or give the slot of another aircraft B to A and assign a free slot to B. The problem can then be modelled as follows.
