Conference organiser, 50th Annual conference of the UTSG

 

International conforence organised jointly with the Institution of Mathematics and its Applications. Invited speakers came from USA, EU and UK; Delegates attended from around the world. The conference brought together academics and practitioners with an interest in the application of mathematics within all aspects of transport planning, management and analysis. Papers described novel applications of mathematical or statistical methods applied to a range of modes and forms of transport. Topics included within the conference applied branches of mathematics including Statistical or mathematical analysis of real or theoretical systems Developments of solution, optimisation or control algorithms Improved approaches to planning, scheduling or operations management Representation and modelling of complex systems to any mode or aspect of transport including (but not limited to) safety, energy, robustness, routing, tolling, signals, vehicle dynamics, logistics, reliability, environmental impact, demand responsive systems, crowd dynamics, choice modelling, distributed intelligence or mixed-mode flows.

The series of International Symposia on Transportation and Traffic Theory provides the main regular opportunity for those concerned with theoretical approaches to the analysis of transport and traffic systems for the benefit of society to meet and exchange their latest thinking on advances in understanding and application. The symposia also provide a unique opening for those who are interested in contributing to or gaining a deeper understanding of this field. The ultimate aim of the symposia is to contribute, though a more complete understanding of transport and traffic phenomena, to more effective approaches to the planning, design and management of transport systems. However, the focus of the symposia is on the underlying science, leading to papers on the more fundamental aspects of transport and traffic, especially where the existing theory is felt to be underdeveloped, inadequate, or in need of correction. In these cases, the formulation, development and testing of new theories as well as the critique, refinement, and extension of existing ones has led to the generation of new perspectives.
