SYEN 5322 - Modeling Transportation Systems

Three hours lecture. Three credit hours.

The objectives of transportation analysis are defined to include mobility provision, consequence identification and selection of courses of action. A set of methodologies have evolved to exclusively address transport modeling, including demand forecasting, technology representation, network-flow, and multi-attribute assessment- of performance. This course reviews very powerful tools to analyze such a class of technological and socioeconomic problems, characterized by the explicit recognition of a spatial dimension.
