Aircraft Queue Manager

Description

A software subsystem of an air-traffic control system is required to manage a queue of aircraft at an airport. The aircraft queue is managed by a service that responds to three types of requests:

• System boot used to start the system.
• Enqueue aircraft used to insert a new Aircraft into the system.
• Dequeue aircraft used to remove an Aircraft from the system.

Aircraft have at least (but are not limited to having) the following properties:

• Type (see AircraftType enum): Passenger or Cargo
• Size (see AircraftSize enum): Small or Large

The process that manages the queue of aircraft satisfies the following:

• There is no limit to the number of aircraft it can manage.
• Dequeue aircraft requests result in selection of one aircraft for removal such that:
  • Passenger aircraft have removal precedence over Cargo aircraft.
  • Large aircraft of a given type have removal precedence over Small aircraft of the same type.
  • Earlier enqueued aircraft of a given type and size have precedence over later enqueued aircraft of the same type and size.

System Implementation:

• There are multiple data structures and/or constants defined to represent requests, the state of an individual aircraft and the state of the aircraft queue.
• The code has REST endpoints that implement the three defined requests and follows the above guidelines to implement an aircraft queue manager.
