Claim One:
1. A method, implemented in a computer readable and executable program on a computer processor, simulating, controlling, and optimizing dynamic global models of transport systems, the method comprising: combining a multidimensional Monotonic Lagrangian Grid (MLG) algorithm with algorithms for separation assurance and updating trajectories of a plurality of moving nodes within transport systems: storing into a structure of the multidimensional MLG algorithm, by the computer processor, physical locations describing the plurality of moving nodes, sorting and ordering the plurality of moving nodes on a grid structure in real (operational) space and indexing (computer memory) space, causing a monotonic mapping between indices of the grid structure and locations describing the plurality of moving nodes, and repeating sorting until the grid structure is monotonic, updating trajectories of the plurality of moving nodes; and determining in real time, by the computer processor, separation assurance between each node of the plurality of moving nodes in dynamic global models of transport systems, resulting in avoidance of blockages in transport paths, and avoidance of collisions of each node of the plurality of moving nodes in transport systems.
