The City of Novi analyzed its road network and funding levels using RoadSoft software and the PASER rating system. At the current $3.2 million annual funding level, the average road condition would decline over 10 years. Doubling funding to $5 million annually would maintain roads in good condition, reconstruct some roads, slightly reduce roads in poor condition, improve the average PASER rating, and be the optimal funding level. The analysis evaluated different funding scenarios and their impact on road condition over a 10-year period.

Tero technology and Tribology - Maintenance ManagementPulkit Sharma
Terotechnology is the applied science of measuring the operational values of physical assets over their lifecycle. It involves installation, maintenance, and replacement, with a focus on life-cycle costing which adds up all positive and negative costs over a period of time. Tribology is the science of interacting surfaces in relative motion, including friction, lubrication, and wear. It aims to minimize wear through surface engineering and lubrication. Both fields analyze physical assets and interactions to optimize maintenance and lifespan for cost savings.
This document summarizes CSX's presentation at the Citigroup Global Transportation Conference in November 2006. Some key points:
1) CSX had achieved record results year-to-date for 2006, with revenues up 12% and operating income up 31% compared to the same period in 2005.
2) CSX expected long-term revenue growth of 4-6% annually through 2010, driven by both yield improvements and volume growth. Operating income was projected to increase 10-12% annually.
3) The economic environment for transportation was favorable, with manufacturing and trade driving demand. Rail was becoming increasingly competitive compared to trucking due to factors like congestion and fuel costs.

Investigation and Improvement of Road Pavement Section for Rankuva Crossing t...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study investigating and proposing improvements to the road pavement section from Rankuva Crossing to Chikhali-Vansda Road in India. The study aims to analyze the existing road conditions, identify causes of deterioration, and develop a maintenance strategy. Data collection includes visual inspections and tests to evaluate stresses and deflections. Analysis shows the road experiences high commercial traffic volumes beyond its intended design capacity from a nearby quarry. Stretches between 3.5-4.5 km and 5-6 km are found to be in poor condition with cracking, rutting, and potholes. The concluded maintenance strategy involves structural improvements like overlays to strengthen the pavement for current overloaded traffic conditions.
The document summarizes CCR's 2Q12 earnings results. Key highlights include an 11% increase in net revenues compared to 2Q11, a 13.4% increase in EBITDA with margins up 1.3 percentage points, and a 37.7% increase in net income. Traffic increased by 1.4% while electronic toll collections reached 67.4% of revenues. EBITDA margins expanded due to increased cash generation and cost reductions, including lower concession fees, personnel costs, and maintenance provisions.
CCR reported its 1Q12 earnings results, which showed increases in several key financial metrics compared to 1Q11:
- Traffic increased 5.1%
- EBITDA increased 17.9% to R$780.5 million, with the margin expanding 1.9 percentage points to 65.3%
- Net income increased 64.7% to R$288.6 million
The earnings growth was driven by increased cash flow generation from higher traffic and tariffs, combined with reductions in operational costs and financial expenses. Subsequent to 1Q12, CCR also reported the acquisition of an 80% stake in BARCAS and being awarded the concession for Transolímpica.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

2. Pavement Asset Management,
RoadSoft-GIS, and the PASER System
In 2002, Public Act 499 was signed into law defining
asset management as “an ongoing process of
maintaining, upgrading, and operating physical assets
cost-effectively, based on a continuous physical
inventory and condition assessment”
RoadSoft software was introduced in 1993, and since
that time, yearly funding from MDOT has enabled
LTAP at Michigan Tech to continue to refine
development and provide technical support.
The Pavement Surface Evaluation and Rating (PASER)
methodology is used to collect road surface condition
data. PASER is a visual assessment system that rates
the road surface on a scale of 1-10. Where 10 is new
construction and 1 is totally failed.
Page 2 of 19 Road Asset Management and Funding Analysis Presentation March 2012
3. Maintaining An Asset
The PASER rating, and subsequent classification to ‘Good’, ‘Fair’, & ‘Poor’,
corresponds to an associated Remaining Service Life (RSL).
It is much more cost effective to perform preventative maintenance while
the condition is still good.

17. Conclusions
Current Funding Level - $3,200,000 is not sufficient to
maintain the average PASER condition over ten years.
Funding the road program at $4,000,000 per year improves
the average condition of the system, however more streets
would be in poor condition
An investment of $5,000,000 per year
Provides ample funding to maintain roads currently in
good/fair condition (protect previous investments)
Provides ample funding for road program to incorporate a
reconstruction component
Roads in ‘Poor’ category are slightly reduced over 10 year
period
Provides improved overall average PASER rating of system
(From 6.5 to 7.5) after 10 years
