  • Abstract
    Airline disruption management, also known as airline operational scheduling, is becoming an important research topic. During the last few decades great strides have been made to generate optimal schedules. The problem is that when the ideal schedule gets disrupted on the day of operation we need to recover as quickly as possible. A combination of an expert system and a Q-Learning system, implemented as an intelligent agent can be used as a technological approach to solve this problem
