About this award
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was awarded a $679,669 cooperative agreement on September 1, 2023, to conduct research on managing the collective behavior of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) systems. The project, titled "Competition, Cooperation, and Coordination: Managing the Collective Behavior of Advanced Air Mobility Systems," will be performed in Cambridge, Massachusetts and is scheduled for completion by August 31, 2026. The research addresses the transformation of aerial mobility toward electric and hybrid aircraft with high autonomy levels, examining how individual vehicles, vehicle operators managing fleets, airspace service providers, and served communities interact within integrated AAM ecosystems.
The project will develop approaches for characterizing and optimizing collective behavior across multiple system participants operating across edge computing, cloud-based, and federated architectures. MIT will investigate coordination mechanisms necessary as autonomous vehicles transition between airspace regions managed by different service providers, while also considering differential impacts on various communities. This cooperative agreement, funded by a civilian federal agency through its Shared Services Center, represents no set-aside designation and leverages MIT's extensive capabilities in research, technological development, and systems engineering to advance critical infrastructure for next-generation aviation operations.
