Research on Flight Delay Based on Adaptive Agent Digraph

Article Preview

Abstract:

Flight delay is a serious problem which many airlines encounter. This paper studies on flight delay problem based on the thought of adaptive agent digraph,and then does the simulation analysis. The indicator of entropy is proposed to measure the uncertainty of flight delay occurrence. The results show that if entropy is not zero, flight delay occurs,and if entropy increases, the possibility of flight delay increases as well as its spread effect. So using entropy as the indicator to reflect the situation of flight delay is feasible.
