Abstract:

A system, method, and computer program for managing integrated real-time information about air flight trips and providing that information to multiple users by way of a flight operations system (FOS), including a data engine (DE) and render engine (RE). A computerized Upstream Distribution Center (UDC) containing a packet manager connects to the FOS and to a user interface including a computer display using text, image and color. The UDC is connectable to multiple user interfaces containing copies of the computer program through computer networks by which information is collected and propagated on a real time basis using object-relational mapping, object caching and proactive notification or âpushâ technology.
