NASA ANNOUNCES GEORGIA AERONAUTICS RESEARCH AWARDS
WASHINGTON -- The Airspace Systems Program of NASA's Aeronautics
Research Mission Directorate has awarded approximately $476,000 to the
Georgia Tech Research Corp., in Atlanta, for work described in their
NASA research announcement proposal "A Conceptual and Computational
Framework for Identifying and Predicting the Performance of Novel
Airspace Concepts of Operation."
The award is 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.
