ATS-15 Tools of the Trade: Prioritizing and Planning for Active Transportation
This document discusses approaches to right-of-way management and modal prioritization in cities. It describes how cities have many plans and desires for street space for uses like parking, loading, bike infrastructure, and transit. It then summarizes modal prioritization frameworks in cities like Chicago, Washington D.C., and San Francisco. The document proposes drafting a new framework based on right-of-way functions rather than modes. It presents an initial draft framework that prioritizes right-of-way uses differently depending on the street type and context.
Elgin Smi2
The document discusses how the ITE/CNU Guide for Walkable Streets can support Elgin, Illinois' plans to create more walkable and transit-oriented development. It outlines Elgin's vision for downtown and mixed-use centers, and how the guide differs from conventional traffic engineering approaches by being context-sensitive and emphasizing networks over arterials. Two challenges to implementing walkable streets in Elgin are discussed: the city's conventional network design that limits intersections, and standards requiring long blocks on arterial roads. Adopting the ITE/CNU guide's recommendations could help Elgin overcome these challenges.

Portland's Complete Streets Policy - GSMSummit 2014, Bruce Hyman
Why plan for growth and change, when it seems so much easier to simply react?
When there is a distinct and shared vision for your community - when residents, businesses and local government anticipate a sustainable town with cohesive and thriving neighborhoods - you have the power to conserve your beautiful natural spaces, enhance your existing downtown or Main Street, enable rural areas to be productive and prosperous, and save money through efficient use of existing infrastructure.
This is the dollars and sense of smart growth.
Success is clearly visible in Maine, from the creation of a community-built senior housing complex and health center in Fort Fairfield to conservation easements creating Forever Farms to Rockland's revitalized downtown. Communities have options. We have the power to manage our own responses to growth and change.
After all, “Planning is a process of choosing among those many options. If we do not choose to plan, then we choose to have others plan for us.” - Richard I. Winwood
And in the end, this means that our children and their children will choose to make Maine home and our economy will provide the opportunities to do so.
The Summit offers you a wonderful opportunity to be a part of the transformative change in Maine that we’ve seen these gatherings produce. We encourage you to consider the value of being actively involved in growing Maine’s economy and protecting the reasons we choose to live here.

Placemaking through complete streets
This document discusses the economic benefits of placemaking and complete streets. Placemaking creates great public spaces that improve quality of life and economic development by attracting businesses and talent. Complete streets that accommodate pedestrians, bicyclists and public transit alongside vehicles make communities more livable and boost economic indicators like property values, retail sales, and development. Case studies show projects that converted roads to be more multimodal generated hundreds of millions in economic output and private investment. Walkable communities with good public spaces are shown to have higher property values.

Planning & Urban Design Principles for Non-Planners
Much of the development that has occurred in Wisconsin and around the nation over the past 60 years has created a feeling of sameness from community to community. Our development pattern has separated uses from one another and catered to cars at the expense of pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit. The New Urbanism promotes the creation and restoration of diverse, walkable, compact, vibrant mixed-use communities built with integrated housing, employment, shops, and schools. It is a revival of the lost art of "placemaking" to raise our quality of life and standard of living by creating neighborhoods, not just subdivisions, and building main streets, not just shopping malls.

RV 2015: Art, Community Culture and TOD: Four Stories by Abigail Thorne-Lyman
This document discusses art policy issues and funding alternatives for BART. It provides background on why a new art policy is needed now, to enhance the rider experience and community identity. It examines the art programs of other transit agencies, finding that allocation percentages for art range from 0.5-1.5% of capital project budgets. Case studies show how different agencies fund staffing and programming. Examples are given of BART and other agency art projects and their associated budgets, ranging from $7,000 for a temporary performance to $350,000 for station art. The document suggests allowing art to happen organically and recording the results as one plan, and making small wins to demonstrate the benefits of public art.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODEL
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
Harnessing WebAssembly for Real-time Stateless Streaming Pipelines
Traditionally, dealing with real-time data pipelines has involved significant overhead, even for straightforward tasks like data transformation or masking. However, in this talk, we’ll venture into the dynamic realm of WebAssembly (WASM) and discover how it can revolutionize the creation of stateless streaming pipelines within a Kafka (Redpanda) broker. These pipelines are adept at managing low-latency, high-data-volume scenarios.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
