An Evaluation of Automobile Use, Parking Provision, and Urban Activityctmccahill
Early American cities were built around dense street networks and relied upon a wide variety of modes for transportation. For more than 50 years, however, many small cities have been physically restructured in efforts to provide automobile access comparable to that in the surrounding suburbs. In those cities, the level of automobile use, the physical form, and the level of activity are now very different from cities that, instead, made greater efforts to preserve their existing urban form. This study looks at 11 small cities that have exhibited very different trends in terms of automobile use and infrastructure provision since 1960 in order to gauge how these differences have impacted long-term urban vitality in those cities.
This study relies on socioeconomic and demographic data dating back to 1960, historical travel mode share data, maps depicting the amount of land used for transportation purposes, and policy review. This approach provides unique insight regarding the aggregate impacts of automobile use on urban land consumption and urban vitality as well as a historical perspective revealing how these cities evolved and key policies that enabled these changes.
In our study, we found that higher levels of automobile use correspond with lower concentrations of activities (residential and employment). This is due in large part to the amount of land needed for automobile infrastructure. The cities were divided into two groups: “low automobile use” and “automobile dependent.” On average, parking consumes more than twice as much urban land per activity in automobile dependent cities. These cities also have fewer than half as many productive activities per square mile. The study also reveals that incomes and automobile ownerships rates are higher in cities with low automobile use, suggesting that individuals will choose not to use their automobiles if there are diverse transportation choices and if non-automobile modes of transportation are attractive options. This lessens the amount of automobile infrastructure needed.
Evidence suggests that policy decisions within each city have greatly influenced the changes they experienced over time. Based on the trends revealed in this study, a productive, long-term policy approach should incorporate measures that support diverse transportation systems and efficient use of urban space.

Gravity vs Radiation model two approaches on commuting in GreeceMaria Stefanouli
Commuting –defined as the daily travelling for employment purposes– has gradually intensified in the last decades. At the heart of today’s working life, the multivariate commuting is of great importance for every sustainable policy. Thus, the objective of this paper is to examine, using the latest available census data, commuting flows in Greece at relatively fine unit scales (Local Administrative Unit - LAU1). For this purpose, the gravity model is used, as is the radiation model, which recently was introduced in the approach of transportation fluxes. Both the methodology and the results are compared. Consequently, this paper aims not only to approach the commuting patterns in Greece, but also to conclude whether the radiation model is a good alternative to the use of gravity models in spatial interaction analysis.

Mobility is an important part of daily life. Progressive community planning and transportation design can greatly reduce the need for automobile travel, instead providing a diverse range of active transportation alternatives.
This presentation on the CATCH project looks at how transportation-related data can be used to understand a city’s travel footprint and help to inform city planning and programs to promote individual behaviour change.
It reviews the findings and lessons learned from the ‘CATCH Project’ (Carbon Aware Travel Choice): a 2 million euro-funded project, involving 11 partners across 6 European Union countries, aimed to develop a knowledge platform to help urban communities move to less carbon-intensive transportation systems. This presentation touches on the important role of developing a system to compare and contrast best practices, identify the many motivators for change to low carbon mobility, and use tools for engaging the public and decision makers to support innovation and change.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:

modelling (T. Schmidt et F. Ducroz)
• Based on COPERT IV methodology (emissions levels by
average speed and by type of vehicles considering cold
start for cars and road gradient for lorries)
• Hourly traffic and average speed
• CITEPA vehicle fleet (motorization type, power class, EURO
standard, weight class, number of axles for trucks)
• This model also calculates energy consumption
• Output : kg per km of 20 pollutant for each link of the
network and each hour of a year
• Feeding air pollution dispersion model
• Circul’air is a model developed by ASPA (regional air quality
agency Alsace)

9. c. Air pollution dispersion
modelling (T. Schmidt et F. Ducroz)
• Chemistry/transport model
• 3000 road sources (bounded to the Nantes
Metropolis area and simplified network)
completed by other ponctual or surface sources
(residential and industrial)
• Output : concentrations of pollutants (average,
percentile) calculated in various point of an
adaptative grid
• A GIS interpolation allows to obtain a complete
visualization

10. d. Noise modelling
(J. Picaut)
• Development of a simplified software using
Orbis GIS platform (a GPL GIS)
• Meshing between buildings with a Delaunay
triangulation (calculation points)
• Road and/or rail noise
• Direct propagation, 1st and 2nd reflexion,
horizontal diffraction
• Output: sound pressure level on each point
(Ln, Lden), then interpolated

11. e. Using modelling tools
for evaluation purpose
• TDM were initially designed for other
purposes
• The existing literature has proven the
feasibility of using a chain of models (Chiquetto
and Mackett, 1995 ; Lee and Jo, 1995 ; Gualtieri and
Tartaglia, 1998; Ambrosino and al ., 1999; Brown and
Affum, 2002 ; Soleil and al ., 2002 ; Affum and al ., 2003 ;
Lagache and al ., 2006 ; Hatzopoulou and Miller, 2010)
• But discussions about scenarios definition and
modelling actions remained limited
11
12. f. Definition of
scenarios
• 3 reference situations (2002, 2008, 2008 P+R)
• 3 integrated scenarios (without Busway,
maximal UMMP, minimal UMMP)
• sensitivity tests (individual mobility, fuel price,
public transport prices, public transport
frequency, car parking rates, limitations of
statutory speeds, evolution of the vehicle
fleet...)

19. 6. Conclusion
• The proposed methodology works
• Traffic modelling is a key stage
• Some policies are impossible to translate
(carpooling or bicycle promotion...)
• Eval-PDU: a tool to visualize and assess transport
policies and their main impacts (traffic, air
pollution, noise)
• Complex modelling chain requiring large amount
of data and expertise (work remains necessary on
simplification and flexibility for decision
supporting tool)
