This book was released on 2009-09-21 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Critical Information Infrastructures Security, CRITIS 2008, held in Rome, Italy, in October 2008. The 39 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 70 submissions. All the contributions highlight the current development in the field of Critical (Information) Infrastructures and their Protection. Specifically they emphasized that the efforts dedicated to this topic are beginning to provide some concrete results. Some papers illustrated interesting and innovative solutions devoted to understanding, analyzing and modeling a scenario composed by several heterogeneous and interdependent infrastructures. Furthermore, issues concerning crisis management scenarios for interdependent infrastructures have been illustrated. Encouraging preliminarily results have been presented about the development of new technological solutions addressing self-healing capabilities of infrastructures, that is regarded as one of the most promising research topics to improve the infrastructures’ resilience.

Book Synopsis Design Guidelines to Enhance Pedestrian and Transit Interaction by : Kevin M. Hall
Download or read book Design Guidelines to Enhance Pedestrian and Transit Interaction written by Kevin M. Hall and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report represents the first of two document examining strategies to encourage and enhance transit use in Texas and throughout the country. The second report entitled Examination of Policies and Programs Supporting Transit Use in Texas, identifies general approaches and implementation techniques to encourage greater use of all types of transit services. This report documents the results of a study examining design treatments that can enhance the comfort, convenience, and safety of transit facilities, and to improve pedestrian and transit interaction. The study identifies the human and environmental elements that should be considered in transit facility designs and provides examples of design features that can be incorporated into different types of transit facilities. The major focus is on transit facilities appropriate in small communities and rural areas in Texas. These include bus stops, passenger shelters, and bus stations and centers. Other facilities such as light rail transit (LRT) and commuter rail stations, park-and-ride lots, and intermodal facilities are briefly discussed. A six step process for planning and designing transit facilities is presented. The report also outlines other supporting policies and programs that can enhance the design of all types of transit facilities.

Book Synopsis Security and Environmental Sustainability of Multimodal Transport by : Michael Bell
Download or read book Security and Environmental Sustainability of Multimodal Transport written by Michael Bell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-06-07 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not until the recent attacks on transport systems has transport security become a focus of public concern and academic research. Various aspects of transport security have already been analysed under different agendas. Some research was focused on the potential risk to the environment resulting from transport, in particular from the transport of hazardous or dangerous goods, while other research considered critical elements of transport networks or supply chains as vital lifelines in the case of natural disasters. Recently, new threats stimulated interest in transport security as a stand-alone issue, placing it at the forefront of political and academic agendas. A NATO Advanced Research Workshop held at Imperial College London in January 2009 brought together those with expertise in the above-mentioned fields in order to verify the current state of knowledge in the field and identify promising areas for future work. The workshop concentrated on maritime and intermodal transport, risk management and long-term strategic planning, rather than on the details of monitoring or detection techniques. This collection of papers emanates largely from that workshop. While transport systems are widely recognized as terrorist targets, complete protection of these systems is economically and practically infeasible. The workshop looked at analytical methods to identify critical points in the transport infrastructure and the prioritization of defensive and mitigating measures given the limited resources available. Deficiencies in methods for conducting such an assessment were identified and the need for cost-effective mitigation measures was emphasized.
