Design considerations for shortcut path-based time recovery
Shannon J. Zelinski · 2013 IEEE/AIAA 32nd Digital Avionics Systems Conference (DASC) · 2013
Shortcuts increase controllability by extending recovery time bounds, which can reduce scheduling buffer size and increase throughput 11-14%. Shortcuts should be designed to recover 1.5 times the expected uncertainty, which is robust to +-15% time-to-fly variation. Spacing-based and hybrid schedule-based use policies perform best, adapting to changes in demand.
