註釋Based on the proceedings of the Second International Conference on Mathematics in Transport Planning and Control this book brings together papers from mathematicians, engineers and town planners on the mathematical modelling of traffic flow, choice of mode of transport, and choice of planningof routes. The case studies presented include, for example, mathematical optimization in design and operation of signal-controlled road junctions; stochastic models for predicting choice of route; the planning of airport transit systems. Topics covered include accident prevention, the planning ofmotorways, considerations for country roads, the problems of inner city traffic. The case studies are not concerned only with cars: there are studies on bus traffic, safety measures for pedestrian traffic, provision for cyclists, and for airport ground handling staff. This interesting and wideranging conference attracted speakers from Singapore, Korea, Eastern Europe as well as Britain.
