Getting the scheduling wrong imposes a heavy cost: flying half-empty planes or leasing extra aircraft is an expensive business.

ECONOMIST: Algorithms

Enterprises can deploy M2M technology now to reduce the cost of field service management through remote maintenance, they can optimize fleet scheduling with real-time location and traffic data and they can tap into new business models such as usage-based (or pay-as-you) go billing.

The trick is writing software and algorithms that tackle industry-specific problems, such as flight scheduling that keeps pilots below flying limits and financial models that account for the cost of currency exchanges.
