520 _a""The strengths of the book include the advanced concepts and innovative thinking about ITS and its role in transportation. The authors make some persuasive arguments for change as well as providing some practical examples of hòw to' change and ẁhat you get' for the effort to make changes. ... Operations and computer simulation professionals would appear to benefit from the techniques as well as the ideas."--Dr. Tim Lomax, Texas Transportation Institute" "" ... a very useful addition to the transportation/ITS literature. The writers are certainly aware of the concomitant issues and have done a good job of writing their particular take on the topic."--Prof. Chelsea C. White, III, Georgia Institute of Technology" "" ... a highly original work in rail and vehicle routing simulation and modeling and will be extremely useful in research. It would be very good in the educational setting, especially given the basic software which could be enhanced and improved in the future by the authors and other researchers. Specifically, the DTMC concept is excellent ..."--Raj Ghaman, former manager of ITS Research, U.S. Department of Transportation" "The second edition of a bestseller, Intelligent Transport Systems: Smart and Green Infrastructure Design critically examines the successes and failures of intelligent transport systems (ITS) during the course of the past decade. The new subtitle reflects this edition's focus on meta-principles critical to moving ahead and successfully building ITS infrastructures that take advantage of smart/green technologies. The book identifies challenging problems that must be addressed in order to bring real quality-of-life improvements and positively impact our environmental and civ
