MIT is offering a summer course on Traffic Modeling and simulation for
Intelligent Transportation Systems -- see announcement and URL below. I
would appreciate it if you would pass this information to potential
candidates for this course.
************************************************************************
Announcing a one-week summer course offered by the MIT Professional Institute.
************************************************************************
MODELING AND SIMULATION FOR DYNAMIC TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
MIT: July 31 - August 4, 2000
************************************************************************
This program studies in-depth traffic models and simulation methods and
their applications to designing, evaluating, and operating traffic
networks. Participants learn about traffic flow models and simulation,
origin-destination estimation and prediction; dynamic traffic assignment;
traffic control and route guidance; and evaluation methods. The program
includes examples of applications and demonstrations of software systems.
The emphasis is on fundamentals essential to both practitioners and
researchers in the field. The course is intended for analysts, engineers,
managers and planners, as well as industry, government and academic
researchers. Participants with backgrounds in diverse areas such as
engineering, systems analysis, planning, operations management, control,
and operations research are welcome. Lectures will be given by an
international panel of professors who have studied in-depth all aspects of
traffic modeling and simulation.
