Management
of Traffic Flow - Presented by Dr. Tanya Yuditsky
Traffic Flow Management is an area that brings many challenges to
system design. Successful strategic operations depend on effective
collaboration and information sharing among all the various players
- the facilities, the Command Center, and the airlines. This requirement
exerts its impact on operational needs, system requirements, and system
design. I will provide a brief background on Traffic Flow Management
and describe an example (or two) of how the development of technologies
has been impacted by its unique (to the FAA) requirements.

Configuration
Management - Presented by Theresa Basquez
Configuration Management is
a method to identify, and control the identification of, items that
may or will change. It is a greatly misunderstood discipline, and
though everybody has an idea of what CM is, explaining it exactly
can be a challenge to someone who is not directly involved with the
challenges that arise. This presentation will explain the basic principles
of CM and the benefits CM provides to both projects and products.
