To mitigate these issues, we present a flight path generation system thatdistributes the aeroplanes across the airspace and imparts minimal delays to the flight if required, thus ensuring that the aircraft followsthe shortest route wherein it encounters the least amount of traffic. We develop a parallel genetic algorithm in CUDA-C with a novelfitness function allowing the system to reach an optimal solution where the air traffic density is minimised. The proposed algorithmwas tested on one day’s domestic flight schedule and achieved an 18% reduction in traffic density, with the flight times and delaysremaining proportional to the data observed in the existing air traffic management system","url_abs":"https://doi.org/10.2478/ttj-2023-0021","url_pdf":"https://doi.org/10.2478/ttj-2023-0021","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"air-traffic-management-using-a-gpu","repo_url":"https://github.com/CascadingRadium/Air-Traffic-Distribution","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":null,"task_name":"GPU"},{"task_slug":"management","task_name":"Management"},{"task_slug":"traffic-prediction","task_name":"Traffic Prediction"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
