... Relevant technologies independently, creating study groups and research projects may include synthetic vision, cockpit and controller that duplicate efforts and waste time and money. These prob- displays for novel ATM functions, fast-time simulation lems would be mitigated by consolidating the eight existing and computational functions for predicting future conIPTs into three IPTs, consistent with the recommended ditions, and alerting systems.

... The Integrated Plan's transformation strategy for airports Achieving these improvements would be facilitated by the is titled "Develop Airport Infrastructure to Meet Future De development of (1) improved metrics that better reflect the mand." This title expresses both the goal (enable airports to impacts of technologies, operational procedures, and policies meet future demand)

... Further, the Environmental Protection IPT is collaboration with foreign governments and institutions. This to be commended for adopting a process that begins by should include jointly funded, collaborative research to dedefining initial goals, key uncertainties and risks (including fine NGATS operational concepts suitable for global impleuncertainties in the NGATS architecture)
