WASHINGTON -- The Airspace Systems Program of NASA's Aeronautics
Research Mission Directorate has announced the following research awards
to CSSI, Inc., of the District of Columbia, for work described in their
NASA research announcement proposals:
Proposal Title: A Method for System Performance Evaluation from
Air/Ground Application Performance under Various Operational Concepts
Approximate award amount: $336,000
Proposal Title: The Development of Concepts of Operation and Algorithms
to Support Dynamic Airspace Allocation as a Function of Equipage,
Traffic Density, and Weather
Approximate award amount: $555,000
The awards are designed to foster close collaboration with and
facilitate the exchange of ideas and information between researchers at
NASA, industry, academia and other government agencies. The goal is to
benefit 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 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.
