TOPICS
The scope of the symposium includes all aspects of analysis, planning, design, control, and management to improve the network resilience and reliability of all modes of transport, including:
- User perception of unreliability and vulnerability
- Public policy and reliability of travel times
- The valuation and economics of reliability
- Network reliability modeling and estimation
- Transport network robustness and resilience
- Transport network risk evaluation and management
- Evacuation and disaster relief distribution
- Network interdependencies and cyber security
- Reliability of public transport and supply chains
