| 摘要： | New technology is considered by many to be a key factor in the mix of solutions for improving runway safety. However, our work on three major FAA acquisitions for improving runway safety has shown that there are significant concerns as to what can be effectively deployed within the next several years. For example, a key technology for preventing runway accidents the Airport Surface Detection Equipment-Model-X (ASDE-X)may not meet its cost and schedule goals to commission all 35 systems for $549.8 million by 2011. ASDE-X is a ground surveillance system intended to alert controllers to potential ground collisions. / Availability Note: Order this product from NTIS by: phone at 1-800-553-NTIS (U.S. customers); (703)605-6000 (other countries); fax at (703)605-6900; and email at orders@ntis.gov.
