Abstract
Tower air traffic control is currently performed using several uninteg rated systems. While each of these systems supports performing an isol ated task, the compilation of tools presents a number of challenges. T his paper reports ways in which the Tower Control Computer Complex (TC CC) will support and enhance user management of numerous systems. Area s that will be notably improved include the consistency in the user in terface of the air traffic control toolset, the task of manually integ rating tools and information, toolset alert management, and toolset or ganization and administration.
