Abstract

Airports must accommodate ever increasing passenger numbers while offering a wide range of services. The services are provided through different facilities and processes creat-ing a complex ecosystem of mutually dependent activities. Airport terminals are large-size multi-stakeholder buildings with...

The services are provided through different facilities and processes creat-ing a complex ecosystem of mutually dependent activities.
