The airport gate assignment problem (AGAP) is one of the most important problems operations managers face daily. Many researches have been done to solve this problem and tackle its complexity. The objective of the task is assigning each flight (aircraft) to an available gate while maximizing both conveniences to passengers and the operational efficiency of airport. This objective requires a solution that provides the ability to change and update the gate assignment data on a real time basis. In this paper, we survey the state of the art of these problems and the various methods to obtain the solution. Our survey covers both theoretical and real AGAP with the description of mathematical formulations and resolution methods such as exact algorithms, heuristic algorithms, and metaheuristic algorithms. We also provide a research trend that can inspire researchers about new problems in this area.

Title: simulating the flight gate assignment problem on a trapped ion quantum computer.

Abstract: We study the flight gate assignment problem on IonQ's Aria trapped ion quantum computer using the variational quantum eigensolver. Utilizing the conditional value at risk as an aggregation function, we demonstrate that current trapped ion quantum hardware is able to obtain good solutions for this combinatorial optimization problem with high probability. In particular, we run the full variational quantum eigensolver for small instances and we perform inference runs for larger systems, demonstrating that current and near-future quantum hardware is suitable for addressing combinatorial optimization problems.
