To simulate a complex or complicated task such as a traffic analysis or tactical measure of effectiveness (MOE) analysis at the engagement level, it is appropriate to use a discrete-event system simulation that causes transition between model states through the triggering of events on the basis of the passing of messages between simplified mathematical models coupled in various ways.
A new network of police tactical advisers and an action plan on ending trafficking have also been launched.
"From an engineering and mechanical standpoint, it was difficult to maintain," said Leo Prusak, the F.A.A.'s manager of tactical operations for the Northeast, who was the air traffic manager at La Guardia from 2001 until early this year.

The model is intended to support an air traffic manager's decision-making process during sectorization (for a given set of available sectors determined at tactical planning levels) through the evaluation of conflict risk and air traffic controller task-load.
