Download or read book In Perpetual Motion written by International Association of Travel Behaviour Research. Meeting and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-04-23 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an authoritative assessment of the state-of-the-art in travel behavior research and applications, and identifies the principal emerging trends, challenges and opportunities in this important area of transportation research. It is an outgrowth of the "Austin Meeting" of the International Association for Travel Behavior Research, a milestone event in defining cutting-edge problems and developments in this area. It provides both an entry point and a foundation for future developments likely to take place over the next decade.-- State-of-the-art assessments of key areas of travel behavior research and policy applications, written by the leading international researchers in these areas; unique to this volume-- Features the last two publications of the late Eric Pas, a critical thinker and contributor to the field, including a milestone contribution to Time Use and Travel Behavior-- Charting of new territory for the travel behavior community in the areas of intelligent-transportation systems, telecommunications-travel interactions, land use-travel interactions and the application of microsimulation techniques for dynamic analysis of travel choices in networks

Book Telecommunications  Transportation  and Location

Download or read book Telecommunications Transportation and Location written by Kenneth John Button and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the economics of the evolving interface between the movement of people, goods and information (telecommunications). It illustrates the increasing importance of information flows in relation to how people move about, the ways that goods are transported and on land-use patterns. The authors show how the linkages involved are not static but vary as technology develops, as social priorities shift, and as policymakers adjust institutional structures. The situation is evolving but, nevertheless, from a public policy and a narrower commercial, business perspective, it is important to gain broad insights into what is occurring and the ways that telecommunications, transportation, and location interact. This is the focus of the book. Telecommunications, Transportation and Location contains both synthesis and interpretations of what others have found in regard to these interactions as well as new work that extends earlier findings. The material is presented in a rigorous yet accessible manner to open it to a wide audience of practitioners concerned with policymaking within various levels of government and within private business. Researchers and academics teaching courses including transportation planning, communications, regional science, urban and regional planning, urban and regional economics and transport economics will find much to engage them within this book. It will also be very useful to logistics professionals, and policymakers and practitioners involved in transportation planning.

Book Feature Interactions in Telecommunications and Software Systems VI

Download or read book Feature Interactions in Telecommunications and Software Systems VI written by Muffy Calder and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typically, telecommunications services are implemented in software. Feature interaction is the term used to describe interference between services or features; most attention is given to cases where the interference is undesirable, ie. there is an incompatibility. In telecommunications, control and data is distributed and on such a large scale that software development is by numerous disjoint teams; by its nature, therefore, this software experienced the feature interaction problem first. But, while the workshop focuses on communications services, the subject has relevance to any domain where separate software entities control a shared resource.

Book Impacts of Computer mediated Communication on Travel and Communication Patterns

Download or read book Impacts of Computer mediated Communication on Travel and Communication Patterns written by Prashant Narayan Balepur and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the interactions among different forms of communication, where travel is also considered a form of communication. Data for this study comes from 148 respondents to the "Activity Diary" survey instrument of the Davis Community Network (DCN) project, which obtained information on 636 uses of DCN. Generation, elimination and modification were considered to be the three major potential results of the present DCN communication and the five major types of communication considered were: in-person, physical object, electronic, in-person with travel, and physical object with travel. New activities were generated due to the use of DCN, a Computer-mediated Communication (CmC) system. Cluster analysis performed on the data to identify patterns of outcomes of the current communication yielded 20 clusters, of which the largest comprised neutral outcomes (no impact on future communication) and the second largest involved generation of electronic communication. A cluster analysis on the media alternatives considered by the respondents yielded 17 clusters of which the largest one was characterized by the "no alternative to DCN" response. Among media characteristics, economy, ease of use, speed and non-disruptiveness were found to be the most significant factors influencing the media choice of individuals. DCN was considered to be faster and cheaper than other forms of communication. Work-related and social/entertainment were the two purposes most frequently offered for the current DCN activity. Impacts of individual characteristics such as age, gender, income level and computer experience on DCN activities were also studied. Recommendations for future research are provided.

Book Telecommunications transportation energy Interaction

Download or read book Telecommunications transportation energy Interaction written by Mark Sullivan and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The substitution of transportation by telecommunications has long been advocated as an approach that might eventually alleviate the demand placed on transportation facilities and thereby reduce fuel consumption and air pollutant emissions. With increasing penetration of telecommunications in individual homes and businesses, coupled with the widespread availability of computing equipment, facsimile capabilities and the like, there is renewed interest in exploring and encouraging telecommuting arrangements. These include work-at-home schemes and workplace decentralization with satellite work centers, as well as many other nontraditional approaches to structuring workplace activities and worker responsibilities. The aim of this project is to address the travel behavior implications of telecommuting, and determine the potential of telecommuting to improve urban mobility and reduce fuel consumption. The following objectives will be addressed: 1) prepare a synthesis of existing experience with telecommuting from the standpoint of travel behavior and fuel consumption; 2) characterize telecommunications-tripmaking-energy interactions at the individual and household levels, focusing on travel behavior within a dynamic activity-based framework; 3) develop a predictive approach to assess the energy consumption consequences of telecommmuting; and 4) develop recommendations for possible implementation strategies and for future travel and energy demand forecasting.
