Visible to the public Matching Parking Supply to Travel Demand towards Sustainability

Submitted by Anonymous on Mon, 02/01/2016 - 1:26pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

Parking can take up a significant amount of the trip costs (time and money) in urban travel. As such, it can considerably influence travelers' choices of modes, locations, and time of travel. The advent of smart sensors, wireless communications, social media and big data analytics offers a unique opportunity to tap parking's influence on travel to make the transportation system more efficient, cleaner, and more resilient.

Visible to the public CPS: Synergy: Self-Sustainable Data-Driven Systems In the Field

Submitted by Kai Shen on Mon, 02/01/2016 - 5:37am. Contributors:

Abstract:

Data-driven intelligence is an essential foundation for physical systems in transportation safety and efficiency, area surveillance and security, as well as environmental sustainability. While sophisticated data analysis and synthesis can be well supported in large data centers, future intelligent systems require on-the-scene processing with faster responses and less dependence on the unreliable (often wireless) data communications in the field.
