TL;DR: De and X. Lefevre as discussed by the authors outline the principles of a proposed collision avoidance aid based on the concept of a ship's "room to manoeuvre" in the presence of the vessels' or hazards to navigation.
Abstract: In this paper, by T. Degre and X. Lefevre of the Organisme de Recherches Informatiques et Operationnelles appliques a la Navigation (ORION), the authors outline the principles of a proposed collision avoidance aid based on the concept of a ship's ‘room to manoeuvre’ in the presence of the vessels' or hazards to navigation and a corresponding bridge display.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Fast-Time Encounter Generator (FTEG) is used as a test bed to analyze and validate Aircraft Separation Assurance (ASA) algorithms at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center in Pomona, New Jersey.
Abstract: This paper describes a digital discrete simulation system which is used as a test bed to analyze and validate Aircraft Separation Assurance (ASA) algorithms at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center in Pomona, New Jersey. This dynamic interactive system, the Fast-Time Encounter Generator (FTEG), provides special computer simulation capabilities required to support the evaluation of the Active Beacon Collision Avoidance System (BCAS). As part of the overall BCAS project, the FAA Technical Center is utilizing the FTEG to investigate the performance of the collision avoidance logic. This use and some of the results of the investigations will be discussed. Other uses of the FTEG will also be presented.
