In response to the growing demand for innovative solutions to ATM modelling to support the gate to gate initiative, ISA Software has developed the Airport and Airspace Integrated Modelling System (AIMS).

Solving problems through the use of distributed simulation components

AIMS provides an ATM modelling framework to allow disparate models to manage a simulation exercise in a clear and co-ordinated manner. Through its innovative approach to solving simulation problems, AIMS is the first system that truly allows you to incorporate your own modelling components with those from other providers to achieve a true gate to gate capability.

Plug in your own models to provide enhanced functionality

The advantage that you gain from using the AIMS system is that you can truly plug your models into the environment and add new or existing components to complete the gaps that your own models do not cater for. Through the AIMS approach, you no longer need to rely on a specialist provider or request that they modify their huge model (at a huge price!). If you miss some key functionality it is easy to build your own model to represent it and include it in your scenario through AIMS.

AIMS - Integration by design

The AIMS architecture is specifically designed to support the integration of new and existing simulation modelling tools via a common management agent, and to assist its users in the construction, maintenance and management of their simulation studies.

Centralised, tool independant data management

AIMS also provides a full range of simulation data preparation and support facilities where the user can work on a single, centralised data view and then choose to run any model that has been included in the system WITHOUT NEEDING TO WORRY about any of the specific data requirements. AIMS data management system and filtering mechanism will cater for the specific requirements for you.

Airspace, Airport, Human in the Loop models

AIMS currently provides support for fast-time and real-time Human in the Loop (HITL) models and in the near future, will also incorporate an in depth airport ground management model. In keeping with the spirit of AIMS, to allow the easy integration of different modelling components, all of the AIMS models are based on existing and reknowned simulators.

With AIMS, there is an alternative - Contact us for more information

Through AIMS there is now a real alternative to those huge 'we can do it all' simulators - it is as easy to integrate a new model in AIMS as it is to 'switch on a light'. For more information about AIMS, or if you are interested to propose models for integration in the system, please contact our support team at ISA Software. We will be pleased to help you.
