Social Issues in Computational Transportation Science (Dagstuhl Seminar 13512)

Authors: Glenn Geers, Monika Sester, Stephan Winter, and Ouri E. Wolfson

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 3, Issue 12 (2014)


Abstract
The Dagstuhl Seminar, "Social Issues in Computational Transportation Science" (13512) took place from 15 to 19 December 2103, attracting 27 participants active in a wide range of academic, commercial, and public sector areas. CTS is an emerging discipline that combines advances in computer science and engineering with the modeling, planning, social, and economic aspects of transportation in order to improve the safety, mobility, and sustainability of transportation systems. The aim of this seminar was to focus on the social computing aspects of CTS, including such areas as social networks and crowd-sourcing for transportation, as well as the integration of persuasive technologies and behavioral economics in social computing. In their time at the workshop, participants discussed and debated these and other topics, as shown in the workshop's summary report.

Abstract
From 21.03. to 26.03.2010, the Dagstuhl Seminar 10121 ``Computational Transportation Science '' was held in Schloss Dagstuhl~--~Leibniz Center for Informatics. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.

10121 Report – Towards a Computational Transportation Science

Authors: Glenn Geers, Monika Sester, Stephan Winter, and Ouri Wolfson

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10121, Computational Transportation Science (2010)


Abstract
In the near future, vehicles, travelers, and the infrastructure will collectively have billions of sensors that can communicate with each other. This environment will enable numerous novel applications and order of magnitude improvements in the performance of existing applications. However, information technology (IT) has not had the dramatic impact on day-to-day transportation that it has had on other domains such as business and science. In terms of the real-time information available to most travelers, with the exception of car navigation systems, the transportation experience has not changed much in the last 30-40 years. During this same time, the miniaturization of computing devices and advances in wireless communication and sensor technology have been propagating computing from the stationary desktop to the mobile outdoors, and making it ubiquitous. Future transportation systems, due to their distributed/mobile nature, can become the ultimate test-bed for this ubiquitous (i.e., embedded, highly-distributed, and sensor-laden) computing environment of unprecedented scale. Information technology is the foundation for implementing new transportation control and management strategies, particularly if they are to be made available in real-time to wireless devices such as cell phones and PDAs, traffic lights or dynamic signs. A related development is the emergence of increasingly more sophisticated geospatial (including spatiotemporal) information management capabilities.

Capacity Constrained Routing Algorithms for Evacuation Route Planning

Authors: Shashi Shekhar, Betsy George, and Qingsong Lu

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10121, Computational Transportation Science (2010)


Abstract
Efficient tools are needed to identify routes and schedules to evacuate affected populations to safety in face of natural disasters or terrorist attacks. Challenges arise due to violation of key assumptions (e.g. stationary ranking of alternative routes, Wardrop equilibrium) behind popular shortest path algorithms (e.g. Dijktra's, A*) and microscopic traffic simulators (e.g. DYNASMART). Time-expanded graphs (TEG) based mathematical programming paradigm does not scale up to large urban scenarios due to excessive duplication of transportation network across time-points. We present a new approach, namely Capacity Constrained Route Planner (CCRP), advancing ideas such as Time-Aggregated Graph (TAG) and an ATST function to provide earliest-Arrival-Time given any Start-Time. Laboratory experiments and field use in Twincities for DHS scenarios (e.g. Nuclear power plant, terrorism) show that CCRP is much faster than the state of the art. A key Transportation Science insight suggests that walking the first mile, when appropriate, may speed-up evacuation by a factor of 2 to 3 for many scenarios. Geographic Information Science (e.g. Time Geography) contributions include a novel representation (e.g. TAG) for spatio-temporal networks. Computer Science contributions include graph theory limitations (e.g. non-stationary ranking of routes, non-FIFO behavior) and scalable algorithms for traditional routing problems in time-varying networks, as well as new problems such as identifying the best start-time (for a given arrival-time deadline) to minimize travel-time.
