Air Traffic Management

ATCOTS controller in tower
With more than 35 years of experience in air traffic management, CSC is active in both developing enhancements to today’s ATM system and exploring new operational concepts for future ATM.

CSC specializes in applying the latest information technologies to ATM. This includes business rules, systemwide data and metadata approaches, and CSC’s e4SM methodology for developing new decision support tools and integrating them with legacy ATM systems. We research, design, develop and deploy new computer systems for:
  • Air traffic flow management
  • Near-real-time operations and control of air traffic using ground-based and aircraftbased technologies
  • Strategic planning (several hours in advance) for near-real-time operations
  • Analysis and modeling of potential future operational concepts and future decision support tools
  • Security enhancement of the air transportation system
  • Modeling of predicted future air transportation loads and potential benefits from new operations concepts and new decision support tools
  • Enhanced human-computer interfaces
  • Simulation, testing, and data analysis of decision support tools


Why CSC?

CSC has supported the FAA for more than 35 years and has supported NASA for almost as long as the agency has existed. Today we also participate in NASA research efforts, developing new concepts and prototypes for ATM systems of the future. Products developed by CSC under this research model are being prototyped and used in ATM operations.

CSC employees are active participants in the Air Traffic Control Association and regularly provide papers and conference briefings at the annual ATCA Conference. CSC specialists also actively participate in RTCA, the industrywide standards organization for ATM. Many CSC specialists are former professors or currently serve as adjunct professors at colleges and universities.
