Research on resource allocation model and strategy of airport shared self-service check-in and baggage check system

Abstract:

The shared self－service check－in system can effectively alleviate the tension of limited airport resources in the future. The effective allocation of resources is the key to improving the performance of this collaborative work system. This paper establishes a static resource integer programming model and dynamic adjustment strategy. The model considers the collaborative working relationship between system counter and transportation equipment, and restricts the configuration scheme to provide a stable service level. the strategy improves the equipment utilization by increasing or decreasing the number of equipment according to the initial allocation scheme of different scales. The discrete event simulation results show that the static allocation scheme generated by the model applied to the shared self－service check－in system can not only improve the equipment utilization rate by 132%, but also shorten the queuing time of passengers by 62.5% respectively，compared with traditional check-in system Furth more, the dynamic adjustment strategy has increased the equipment utilization rate by 8%~15%, which can comprehensively optimize and improve the efficiency of future airport baggage handling systems.
