Many modern and growing cities are facing declines in public transport usage, with few e cient 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 temp...

The motivation to improve intermodal connectivity at airports results from a growing interest in reducing the volume of highway traffic generated by airport access and egress trips and facilitating the ability of airport travelers to use high-occupancy modes. However, there is a lack of standardized analysis tools for evaluating the viability and impact of different strategies to improve interm...

-This paper defines the relationship between telecommunications and’ transportation, by expanding on linkages already identified in the literature, by identifying additional relationships, and by putting these relationships into a robust conceptual framework. There are conceptual, physical, analytical, and regulatory parallels between telecommunications and transportation. Telecommunications af...

This paper studies the possible integration of long-haul operations by transportation mode and service level (defined by guaranteed delivery time) for package delivery carriers. Specifically, we consider the allocation of deferred items to excess capacity on alternative modes in ways that allow all transportation modes to be utilized better. Model formulation and solution techniques are discuss...
