The rapid change of location, enabled by plane, high-speed rail, sea and road travel, has constantly become easier and more natural.  These days we travel without any of the difficulties that accompanied taking a trip less than a century ago. All we have to do is to organize and to pick up the transport mode that comes closest to our objectives. In much the same way, many new opportunities for the delivery of goods are being explored and commercially exploited. The purpose of this workshop is to bring researchers and practitioners together in order to set up visions on how agent technology can be and is used for today's isolated IT-tools so as to model, simulate, and manage large-scale complex transportation systems.  Therefore, we are interested in research papers, case studies and practitioners' reports on the implementation and use of Autonomous Agents in all areas related to transportation, traffic and logistics. Besides running real-world applications, we are also interested in papers concerning demonstrators or testbed that are still under development.  Conceptual papers and those reporting on particular components of transportation systems are also welcome. This is the seventh of a well established series of workshops since  2000. Post-pro

CALL FOR PAPERS RETHINKING URBAN INCLUSION: SPACES, MOBILISATIONS, INTERVENTIONS to be held in Coimbra, Portugal, 28-30 June 2012 With almost half the world's population living in cities, questioning the urban dimension of social inclusion and exclusion is imperative. Urban inclusion is increasingly influenced - and often constrained - by intertwined processes of economic globalization, state re-articulation, polarization and diversification of (local) populations and the political practices they add to the city. Educational, health and environmental inequalities, segregation, unemployment, lack of political participation, discrimination and the inability to deal with different forms of participation are all phenomena of exclusion with a local dimension but a multi-scalar nature. At the same time, acting towards social inclusion is developed around ideas, knowledge(s), experiences, resources and capacities which are (dis)located across an array of arenas and distributed among different actors. While traditional concepts and practices of urban inclusion centered on institutions and top-down decision-making seem inadequate to tackle this complexity, new ones are often in their infancy and may be in tension with more established policies. Contesting the centrality of the state and market pervasiveness, a new variety of counter-hegemonic positions and projects, and alternative visions of urban democracy and justice that inform bottom-up and participatory approaches to urban inclusion, have become popular in the Global South, while their transposition to cities in the Global North have met resistance or hardly gone beyond theorization.  The Conference aims to understand and ultimately rethink social inclusion at the urban scale, as the product of broader dynamics and the interaction of different actors and languages. How can we trace, define, and challenge the new subtle forms of social and territorial exclusion, trying to reinvent urban in

Progressive governments use road tolls, parking fees, gas and carbon taxes to reduce traffic congestion, fight climate change and generate revenue for transportation infrastructure. Nevertheless, mentioning any one of these mobility pricing measures often elicits strong reactions from businesses, non-profits and the media, who, in turn, influence political and public acceptance. What is the rationale for their views? Under what implementation conditions would their opinions change? Join us at Transport Futures to discover the answers with these leading stakeholders and international experts: Our confirmed speakers include:·         Kurt Van Dender, Chief Economist, International Transport Forum at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development·         Jens Schade, Associate Professor, Dresden University of Technology·         David Hill, Senior Project Manager, National Practice Leader, Parking Solutions, MMM Group·         Teresa Di Felice, Director of Government & Community Relations, Canadian Automobile Association - South Central Ontario·         Royson James, Columnist, The Toronto Star·         Richard Joy, Vice President, Policy & Government Relations, Toronto Board of Trade·         Gregory Thomas, Federal/Ontario Director, Canadian Taxpayers FederationAs a Transport Futures participant, you will have ample time to engage with speakers and other delegates.  Proceedings will be captured in order to create a 3-pronged educational/social outreach strategy that explicitly explains costs and benefits for government, business and the general public.   This mobility pricing strategy will be used as the basis for a series of community workshops in 2012.

Concurrently, the need to manage environmental impacts effectively will increase. How successful we are in coping with demand will depend on our ability to innovate, to manage congestion, and to improve the quality of transport services. Technological and regulatory innovation will shape the future of transport. These conference proceedings bring together ideas from leading transport researchers from around the world related to the future for interurban passenger transport..  A first set of papers investigates what drives demand for interurban passenger transport and infers how it may evolve in the future.  The remaining papers investigate transport policy issues that emerge as key challenges: when to invest in high-speed rail, how to regulate to ensure efficient operation, how to assign infrastructure to different types of users, and how to control transport's environmental footprint by managing modal split and improving modal performance.

The paper describes the legal background to the use of benefit assessment, and the process of implementation for the first construction phase of the Los Angeles Metro Rail project. The process of developing the benefit assessment structure was a consultative one, utilizing technical inputs from a team of specialist consultants, a task force consisting of major developers and property owners in the affected area, and politicians representing many of the interests in the region. The initial benefit assessment districts were set up to raise $130 million of the cost of the first 4.4 miles of the rail project, and are based on the benefits accruing to certain categories of property in the vicinity of stations. The assessment would be collected for about 18 years and bonding would be used to provide the capital at the time of constr
