This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vehicle-Infrastructure Integration (VII) is an initiative of the U.S. Department of Transportation with participation by automobile manufacturers and other organizations. VII seeks to create a network of communications and shared applications within the U.S. among all vehicles and countless roadside and infrastructure-based elements. This would enable or improve vehicle safety applications, transportation management functions, and other public- and private-sector applications, such as real-time traffic information. An area that highlights the potential of VII is emergency transportation operations, which are activities by public agencies to manage the movement of vehicles in response to everyday accidents and emergency needs, as well as in response to extraordinary events such as large-scale natural disasters or man-made catastrophes. This paper provides a framework for considering potential uses of the VII network. Three basic types of communication are described: vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-infrastructure, and infrastructure-to-vehicle. For emergency transportation operations, an additional distinction between emergency vehicles and private vehicles is added. With this in mind, potential applications can be classified according to the communication paths. A set of VII applications is described in the context of emergency transportation operations. The challenges of deploying VII and creating applications for emergency transportation applications are considered. Gaps in technology and knowledge are identified, with suggestions for research to close the gaps. Gaps considered include technology gaps, techno-social issues, algorithmic and modeling gaps, and human-machine interface gaps. By providing a conceptual framework for the possible functions that VII can enable, and by examining key functions and their challenges, this paper serves to bothhighlight the potential of VII and address the challenges of bringing VII to full deployment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of Annals of Information Systems will acknowledge the twentieth anniversary of the founding of the International Society for Decision Support Systems (ISDSS) by documenting some of the current best practices in teaching and research and envisioning the next twenty years in the decision support systems field. The volume is intended to complement existing DSS literature by offering an outlet for thoughts and research particularly suited to the theme of describing the next twenty years in the area of decision support. Several subthemes are planned for the volume. One subtheme draws on the assessments of internationally known DSS researchers to evaluate where the field has been and what has been accomplished. A second subtheme of the volume will be describing the current best practices of DSS research and teaching efforts. A third subtheme will be an assessment by top DSS scholars on where the DSS discipline needs to focus in the future. The tone of this volume is one of enthusiasm for the potential contributions to come in the area of DSS; contributions that must incorporate an understanding of what has been accomplished in the past, build on the best practices of today, and be be integrated into future decision making practices. The primary questions raised by this volume are: What will information systems-based decision support entail in twenty years? What research is needed to realize the envisioned future of information systems-based decision support? How will the teaching of information systems-based decision support change over the next twenty years? What are the best practices of teaching in the decision support area that can be leveraged to best disseminate DSS knowledge advances to students and practitioners?

This book was released on 2011 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Explores near-term (less than 5 years) and longer-term (5-10 years) technologies that are candidates for enhancing the safety and security of hazardous materials transportation for use by shippers, carriers, emergency responders, or government regulatory and enforcement agencies. The report examines emerging generic technologies that hold promise of being introduced during these near- and longer-term spans. It also highlights potential impediments (e.g., technical, economic, legal, and institutional) to, and opportunities for, their development, deployment, and maintenance. The research focused on all modes used to transport hazardous materials (trucking, rail, marine, air, and pipeline) and resulted in the identification of nine highly promising emerging technologies."--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Preparing to Use Vehicle Infrastructure Integration VII in Transportation Operations written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vehicle infrastructure integration (VII) is an emerging approach intended to create an enabling communication capability to support vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications for safety and mobility applications. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has been an active participant in the national VII development effort. This research project critically assessed national development activities and quantitatively evaluated two potential VII-enabled system operation applications: traffic monitoring and signal control. The results of the research effort provide tangible evidence of the potential that VII holds in helping VDOT improve its ability to operate the transportation system. The benefits demonstrated in traffic monitoring and signal control indicate that VDOT should remain active in VII development. However, the research results also illustrate the uncertainty that currently exists in the national VII development effort. Because of this uncertainty, large investments in field deployment of "early" VII equipment were found to constitute an unnecessarily risky action. The results of the research support the conclusion that VDOT should partner with other states and the U.S. Department of Transportation to develop the new generations of system operations applications that will take full advantage of VII capabilities once the technology development converges at the national level. In addition, VDOT should critically examine current equipment standards to ensure that new purchases of items, such as traffic signal controllers, provide the flexibility for VII upgrades in the near future.
