Amulti-Agent Architecture for a Co-Modal Transport SystemIJMER
Improving the co-modal transport and introducing systems for traveler information is becoming
more and more urgent in our society in order to guarantee a high level of mobility in the long term. The
goal of this research is to develop a distributed co-modal transport system that takes into account all
possible means of transport including carpooling, vehicles on service and public transport and satisfies
traveler’s queries, constraints and preferences. The main contribution of this work is to propose an
innovative multi-agent approach to solve problems in wide co-modal transport networks. First, we propose
a multi-agent architecture to model the system. Then we use a method to construct a co-modal transport
network representation by categorizing the transport services and using transfer links and a distributed
algorithm in order to resolve the shortest paths problem. We test our model and algorithms based on a
case study in Lille, France. The experiments results on theoretical graphs as well as on real transport
networks are very promising

Green growth can be seen as a way to pursue economic growth and development, while preventing environmental degradation, biodiversity loss, and unsustainable natural resource use.
For the short term, green growth can transform the opportunity of the crisis to ensure a more sustainable economic recovery.
For the long term, it will promote new, greener sources of growth.
The OECD is working on policy recommendations to help governments achieve greener growth. The presentation gives an overview of the findings to date and the next steps. It mentions innovation, taxes, jobs and development issues, as well as how to measure progress towards greener growth.
This report examines 28 key trends that are driving the sustainable development and efficient operation of modern cities as they respond to the unique challenges posed by rapid urbanization. Aided by connected technologies, social platforms, and flexible design thinking, cities at the forefront of these progressive solutions are creating a compelling blueprint for ensuring that their citizens, businesses and public institutions thrive. As we plan for the future, PSFK Labs is excited for the opportunity to contribute its point of view to this ongoing conversation.
Oxford "Future of Cities" @ the Harvard GSDNoah Raford
This is a summary of three global scenarios for the future of cities, completed at the University of Oxford’s "Future of Cities" program.
I worked extensively on these scenarios and then presented an early draft of them at the Harvard Graduate School of Design last year.
This presentation is only a draft and may not reflect the final versions of the completed project.
More detail on the project can be found at the official website, here:

Future of Cities: Insights from Multiple Expert Discussions Around the World
Following on from the main 2015 Future Agenda programme, last year we undertook additional Future of Cities events in Singapore, Beirut and Guayaquil. Exploring not only key current challenges and aspirations but also emerging issues, the insights from these and other discussions have all now been synthesized into a single summary. This document brings together views from a wide range of experts from the 2016 workshops as well as previous events in London, Vienna, Dubai, Delhi and Christchurch. Together it provides an overview of three common challenges, three shared ambitions and three emerging concerns that were highlighted in our multiple discussions.
Given the complex, interconnected nature of the drivers of change in cities, it is no surprise that there are hundreds of different reports already published exploring future trends either globally or locally. While this summary may overlap with a number of these reports, it is not intended to be a single answer to the future cities question. Rather it is, we hope, a mapping of the landscape, highlighting the core issues raised for today and tomorrow and pointing to potential areas for further exploration.
As we go forward with further workshops during 2017 planned in London, Toronto, Dubai and Mumbai, we will be delving deeper into some of the key issues, challenging assumptions and hopefully identify new approaches and sources of innovation. We will also be sharing a full report that adds extra context and detail gained from both the insights shared to date and the new ones added during 2017.
If you would like to join in some of the forthcoming events, do let us know. Equally if you have any comments and feedback on the views in this summary, please do feel free add them into the mix via slide-share, linked-in, twitter or email. This is an initial summary that will have gaps and alternative views that may well need modification in order to better represent a global view. We thank all those who have given up time to contribute to the workshops to date and to all those will be adding in their views going forward.

Presentation on new R&D opportunities in Urban Transports - Horizon Europe by Patrick Mercier Handisyde DG RTD - Regione Apulia Representation in Brussels @UNIMED Week in Brussels
Imagine a world in which people and goods can move with minimum impact on the local environment and climate. Imagine an intelligent transport system with smart infrastructure and smart, connected vehicles powered predominantly by renewable energy, and with enlightened end-users: private individuals and enterprises. Imagine a system that is actually based on user demand. That is what we would like to see.
To put mobility and transport on the track to sustainability, we have to improve energy efficiency, switch to renewable energy and more efficient modes of mobility, and, most importantly, increase smartness at all levels of the system. In practice, the last point means smart and efficient mobility services, cooperative systems, and intelligent vehicles and infrastructure.
VTT has a toolbox and the expertise to tackle all the key challenges of smart low-carbon mobility. And, to really make an impact, we are cooperating with all the key stakeholders in the field. Let us re-invent mobility and co-create a better future together!
Urban transport exchange hubs play a key role as an integral part of the transport networks by facilitating relations between public transport modes but also have a function in the city urban planning and in-service facilities [1]. Time savings, urban integration, better use of waiting times and improved operating models are some of the expected benefits of developing efficient city-hubs [2,3]. However, although interchanges are crucial for improving accessibility, there are still problems remaining such as seams or bottlenecks, which are mainly reported in the coordination between the different transport modes and the use of the information systems and management model. In order to examine a part of these problems, the three years (September 2012-February 2015) City-HUB consortium of nine European research institutes from nine countries belonging to the European conference of transport research institutes (ECTRI) project studied 27 multimodal interchanges [4].
Presentation 1 of 8 from Horizon 2020 for Rail event held 8th Nov 2013.
High level overview of where Horizon 2020 fits in
Beginning with the Transport White Paper, and Challenge 2050.
Introduction to Horizon 2020 research programme, its scope and purpose, and how it will differ from the previous Framework Programmes.
Increasing traffic in major urban regions leads to congestion which challenges cities and urban regions in terms of mobility, pollution and safety. ITS is application of information and communications technology (ICT) to the transport sector in the interests of safer, more sustainable & more efficient movement of goods & people.
The integration of intelligent infrastructure and intelligent vehicles had gained wide acceptance yet understanding the various options without incurring unnecessary expenditure is core in ITS planning and implementation. The presentation explains various ITS portfolios, value chain and life-cycle management with focus on the appropriate level of integration.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
3. What is Multi-Modal? Multimodal transport (also referred to as combined transport) is the transportation of goods under a single contract but performed with at least two different means of transport. I.e. the carrier (in a legal sense) is liable for the entire carriage even though it is performed with several different means of transport (e.g. rail, sea and road). co-modality refers to a "use of different modes on their own and in combination“ Inter-modality - Intermodal passenger transport involves more than one mode of transport of passengers. Some modes of transportation have always been intermodal; for example, most major airports have extensive facilities for automobile parking and have good rail or bus connections to the cities nearby 2

IP deals with issues that rises from Integration that trigger further research and new solutionsSTREPs target a specific research objective in a sharply focused approach while large scaleintegrating projects have a comprehensive 'programme' approach and include a coherent andintegrated set of activities dealing with multiple issues.Both instruments play an important and complementary role. With this Work Programme, theobjective is to support a balanced portfolio of projects that will enable on one hand focusedand agile scientific and technological exploration through STREPs and on the other handconcentration of efforts - where needed - through IPs.To this end, an indicative budget distribution per instrument is specified for each objectiveand also to some extent per funding scheme. The distribution is based on the size of theavailable budget per objective and on the nature of the research needed to achieve the relevanttarget outcome and expected impact.The overall aim is to ensure that about half of the support for Collaborative Projects isdelivered through IPs and about half through STREPS.

Proactive == hands on for a dynamic In computing, preemption (sometimes pre-emption) is the act of temporarily interrupting a task being carried out by a computer system, without requiring its cooperation, and with the intention of resuming the task at a later time. Such a change is known as a context switch. It is normally carried out by a privileged task or part of the system known as a preemptive scheduler, which has the power to preempt, or interrupt, and later resume, other tasks in the system.
System Wide Information Management (SWIM) is an advanced technology program designed to facilitate greater sharing of Air Traffic Management (ATM) system information, such as airport operational status, weather information, flight data, status of special use airspace, and National Airspace System (NAS) restrictions. SWIM will support current and future NAS programs by providing a flexible and secure information management architecture for sharing NAS information. SWIM will use commercial off-the-shelf hardware and software to support a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) that will facilitate the addition of new systems and data exchanges and increase common situational awareness.The COMeSafety Project supports the eSafety Forum with respect to all issues related to vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications as the basis for cooperative intelligent road transport systems.COMeSafety provides a platform for both the exchange of information and the presentation of results. Regular electronic newsletters and publications at major conferences and press events complement the dissemination efforts. For European and worldwide harmonization, liaisons are established and workshops are organized to bring together the eSafety Forum and all stakeholders. COMeSafety provides an open integrating platform, aiming for the interests of all public and private stakeholders to be represented.Consolidated results and interests are submitted to the European and worldwide standardisation bodies. Especially the European frequency allocation process is being actively supported by participating in ETSI and CEPT technical groups. Relevant ISO and IEEE work will also be considered. With liaisons to all relevant stakeholders, the provision of information and preparation of strategic guidelines COMeSafety supports directly the eSafety Forum on the items of cooperative systems for road safety and traffic efficiency, which will speed up the system deployment.The work of CEPT is conducted by three autonomous business Committees:The Electronic Communications Committee (ECC)The European Committee for Postal Regulation (CERP)The Committee for ITU Policy (Com-ITU)Paratransit is an alternative mode of flexible passenger transportation that does not follow fixed routes or schedules. Typically mini-buses are used to provide paratransit service, but also share taxis and jitneys are important providers.
