TOPICS
The scope of the symposium includes all aspects of analysis and design to improve network reliability, including:
- User perception of unreliability and vulnerability
- Public policy and reliability of travel times
- The valuation of reliability
- The economics of reliability
- Network reliability modeling and estimation
- Transport network robustness
- Reliability of public transportation
- Travel behavior under uncertainty
- Vehicle routing and scheduling under uncertainty
- Risk evaluation and management for transportation networks
- ITS to improve network reliability
PAPER SUBMISSION
To present a paper at this event, an extended abstract (1000 words) should be submitted electronically (word or pdf format) to the organizers at secretary@instr2012.org by 15 January 2012 for the first-round review. If the abstract is accepted, a full length manuscript will need to be submitted by 15 June 2012 for final evaluation. The evaluation will be undertaken by referees drawn from the International Scientific Committee of the INSTR and other prominent researchers from around the world. Final acceptance of a paper will thus be based on peer review of the full paper. Authors of accepted papers will be asked to produce a final camera-ready manuscript in Word format by 15 September 2012, for publication in the proceedings of the Symposium.
