Abstract
Washington Dulles International Airport transports passengers concourse to concourse using mobile lounges. The airport itself is continuously expanding the number of gates that it will serve to meet airline and passenger demand. A discrete-event simulation model was constructed to show how existing and future operations would impact the mobile lounge fleet. The model is able to show how many mobile lounges to assign for each route, number of docks for each concourse, and headway times
