Informed driving is becoming a key feature to increase the sustainability of taxi companies. The sensors installed in each vehicle are providing new opportunities to automatically discover knowledge, which in return deliver information for realtime decision making. Intelligent transportation systems for taxi dispatching and time-saving route finding are already exploring this sensing data. In t...

This study investigated pilots' taxi performance, situation awareness and workload while taxiing with three different head-up display (HUD) symbology formats: Command-guidance, Situationguidance and Hybrid. Command-guidance symbology provided the pilot with required control inputs to maintain centerline position; Situation-guidance symbology provided conformal, scenelinked navigation informatio...

The Trust Assertion XML Infrastructure (TAXI) is described. TAXI is a PKI research project that had the objective of developing technology that would assist the deployment of PKI. Parts of the TAXI architecture have since been realized in open standards, notably the XKMS [XKMS] and SAML [SAML] specifications, other parts of the TAXI architecture such as XTAML [XTAML] and XKASS [XKASS] have been...

In cycler and semi-cycler Mars mission architectures a crew “taxi” docks with the interplanetary transfer vehicle on a hyperbolic flyby trajectory, hence the term “hyperbolic rendezvous.” An algorithm that guides the taxi to intercept the transfer vehicle is presented with a control law for final approach. When navigation and thrust uncertainties are included, the vehicles dock at a closing rat...

Public transport is an effective and sustainable alternative to private vehicle usage, also helping to reduce the environmental impact of driving. However, the work environment of public transport operators is full of adverse conditions, which, together with their high mileage, may increase the occurrence of negative safety outcomes such as traffic accidents, often preceded by risky road behavi...

In Vietnam's capital city Hanoi, the growing popularity of application based (app-based) motorbike taxis has offered many inhabitants new opportunities to pursue a mobile livelihood with ride-hailing platforms. Nonetheless, as this influx app-based drivers hit city's streets, specific and mobility frictions have emerged, notably informal, ‘traditional’ taxi drivers, or xe ôm. paper we analyse t...

The rapid growth of Ride-hailing Transport Services (RTS) demand is found to have caused a fierce market share battle with conventional taxis in previous decades. In selecting taxi or RTS, understanding the factors affecting passenger’s decisions substantial for better development and more reliable transit service. aims this study evaluate RTS Jakarta Greater Area, Indonesia, using demand-suppl...
