Popis: This paper focuses on how cognitive loads of air traffic controllers can be reduced when optimizing both aircraft route and landing order in the airport landing problem (ALP), and proposes its method which can adaptively change the optimized aircraft landing order according to the aircraft routes partially fixed by air traffic controllers as human intervention. Though the intensive simulation on Haneda Airport in ALP, the following implications have been revealed: (1) our proposed optimization method succeeded to mostly maintain the same level of the results without fixing some of aircraft routes (i.e., the mostly same total distance of all aircrafts from the start position to the destination airport) even if air traffic controllers fixed some of aircraft routes; and (2) this result indicates that our proposed method has a great potential of reducing the cognitive loads of air traffic controllers by reducing the number of aircrafts that should be watched with fixing some of aircraft routes.
