Air Traffic Management (ATM) involves collaborative work fromseveral actors: traffic flow managers, air traffic controllers(controllers) and pilots. The ever-increasing demand for commercialair travel poses great challenges to today's airspace-centered ATMsystem in which each controller only undertakes the responsibilityto control the aircraft flying through her/his own airspace(sector). Any aircraft bunching occurring in a sector has thepotential to cause the risk of instant traffic overload in anothersector. It is therefore essential to further decentralize thesystem by redistributing the responsibility as well as workload.This paper presents our research to support this redistribution bysetting up a methodological framework using multi-agentcoordination techniques. A recently identified problem, i.e.Real-time Traffic Synchronization, is chosen as the firstapplication
