2019/09/01 - 2019/12/20 The competition challenged students to develop a decision-support tool for layout designing and staff planning of an airport, based on flights forecasts. Through an optimization-simulation approach, the airport's capacity was optimized, subject to constraints on capital, space and equipment. The project was awarded with the 3rd place out of 297 teams.
