Overviews the AgentFly system for simulation of national air control

Good overview of problems in national air controll, basic domain description, existing approaches

Agent based approach to modeling, from the planes to the controllers

• Various perception and tasking models used to simulate human controllers

Important to support real-time human-in-the-loop emulation, as well as faster-than-real simulation
