TRANSIMS is a disaggregate, behavioral transportation planning package developed under US DOT's and EPA funding at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). It is an integrated system of travel forecasting models designed to give transportation planners accurate, complete information on traffic impacts, congestion, and pollution by simulating second-by-second movements of every person and ever...

As the applied fields of GIS are expanded to the transportation, developing internet-based applications for transportation information is getting attention increasingly. Most applications developed so far are primarily focused on guidance systems for privately-owned cars. Although some recent ones are devoted to public transportation systems, they show limitations in dealing with the following ...

New transportation systems have always attracted attention of both transportation experts and general public: the first railway in England, first automobile and streetcar in Germany, first airplane in the United States all of these inventions attracted excitement, curiosity, enthusiasm and skepticism. With time, many inventions fulfilled or exceeded expectations: they have been developed into m...

The International Council on Clean Transportation is an independent nonprofit organization founded to provide high-quality research and analysis to governments in the world's largest vehicle markets. Our mission is to improve the environmental performance and energy efficiency of road, marine, and air transportation in order to benefit public health and mitigate climate change. For more informa...

Numerous algorithms have been proposed to solve the shortest-pathproblem; many of them consider a single-mode network and crispcosts. Other attempts have addressed the problem of fuzzy costs ina single-mode network, the so-called fuzzy shortest-path problem(FSPP). The main contribution of the present work is to solve theoptimum path problem in a multimodal transportation network, inwhich the co...

The transportation sector already accounts for 14% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, controlling carbon emissions in the has become a top priority China and other countries around world. In addition to technological development clean energy transportation, most critical aspect globalization new industry market is optimization access routes. This paper will be based on road travel t...

Many modern and growing cities are facing declines in public transport usage, with few efficient methods to explain why. In this article, we show that urban mobility patterns and transport mode choices can be derived from cellphone call detail records coupled with public transport data recorded from smart cards. Specifically, we present new data mining approaches to determine the spatial and te...
