Operational safety is an important aspect of aviation and it is necessary to further success and development of aviation. A modern approach to safety management is based on proactive and predictive control methods. Aviation stakeholders typically operate with both approaches, however they are not able to profit from the potential of their integration. The integration of safety studies with the operational safety data leads to the development of smart instrument for optimum management of operational deviation. The creation of a conceptual model of the integration is needed for implementing the instrument. The solution is based on current methods and procedures used by safety engineering, the STPA (System-Theoretic Process Analysis) in particular. The project take use of Unified Foundational Ontology as an unifying means of contemporary conceptual models. The aim is to provide a model of the subject area that will allow the use of results for the integration of data in the software background for the Safety Management System. The resulting solution will be validated in cooperation with Prague Airport. The conceptual model will form the basis for designing and implementing solutions in other areas where safety studies are used.

The goal of the project is to develop concept for safety performance evaluation for systemic safety models in civil aviation. Safety is focused on proactive approach to prevent accidents instead of reacting to accidents, which already happened. Proactive approach also includes safety performance. The newest trend in safety is to use systemic approach. System analysis covers all interactions among system components, effects of environment and human factor. Systemic approach does not try to find one fault but it want to cover the overall system cause of problems. Evaluation of safety performance is one of the most important component of safety system but it was not yet fully implemented into different industries, due to novelty of the systemic approach to modelling safety. Currently, few implementations of the system approach to safety exist. The issue of safety performance evaluation using the systemic approach is very highly present. The output of the project should be concept of safety performance evaluation for systemic models of safety according the latest safety theories.

Airports affect economic and social environment of their neighborhood. Their operation is linked to the activities of many other business companies. The airport itself is a business company and so generating profit is one of its goals. In today's highly competitive environment of air transport across Europe, it is important to continually analyze airport revenue and expenditures. An important factor influencing the overall balance is efficiency of individual processes. To allow the required quality of service (especially in terms of waiting times), it is important to ensure consistency between the intensity of input requirements to the system and the intensity of service provided. Among the most important parts of the handling process, which influence all departing passengers and number of other factors and parameters, there are passenger and cabin baggage security checkpoints. Consistency between the intensity of the input requirements (passenger arrival) and the intensity of the service (expressed by the number of operating security check lines) can be explicitly controlled at the checkpoints using analytical methods and simulation tools. Maintaining high level of operational efficiency whilst keeping high level of passenger satisfaction and adhering to strict security requirements is a difficult target. The proposed project, according the dissertation thesis of the proposer, aims to create analytical tools for prediction of the workload of centralized security checkpoints, by the means of mathematical models to create models refining long-term forecasts and based on current operational conditions to create tools for evaluating operational efficiency.

The project is aimed at establishment of basic model allowing advanced evaluation and analysis of safety performance in time. In nowadays aviation, safety performance is an element subjected to efforts for its effective quantification. Expressing the safety performance in time represents a signal which is possible to analyse similarly as any other sensorial signal (picked up from speedometers, navigational systems etc.) utilizing current mathematical modelling. This basic model, however, will be focused on the so called soft data (data about events, operational data etc.) which are modern phenomenon and which comprise significant part of the domain of safety. In aviation, air navigation service providers have the majority of relevant data available, and at the same time, they have the most advanced safety management systems (SMS). Thus such a model application appears to be most feasible for them. The model will provide safety management with brand-new type of safety analysis which should facilitate decision process and priority settings. It will be based upon most appropriate mathematical mechanism selection which will serve for identification of ways for safety performance evaluation in time.
