The constantly increasing demand for air transport will create a need for more and more automated functions, in order to provide adequate capacity in air traffic control systems. One possible idea sees the air traffic controller in the role of an air traffic manager in a future Air Traffic Management system (ATM). EUROCONTROL, through its program 'Studies, Tests and Applied Research' has initiated the evaluation of modern technologies to study their usefulness for future ATM concepts. As part of a first simulation of a largely automated system (ARC2000) planned for 1991 in the EUROCONTROL Experimental Center at Bretigny (France), experiments are conducted on knowledge-based computer reasoning within an ATM Strategical and Tactical Advisor (ASTA). Elsewhere, in a different scenario, ASTA will assist the controller in his task of ensuring a conflict-free traffic flow within his area of responsibility.
