TxDOT uses permeable friction courses (PFC) to improve safety by reducing hydroplaning risk and improving visibility. PFC allows water to drain quicker from the road surface. A study on a section of IH-35 found that replacing an old concrete pavement with a PFC overlay reduced accidents, especially in wet weather, improved ride quality and noise levels. Accident data for a section of RM 1431 showed a nearly 100% reduction in wet weather accidents and injuries after a PFC was placed. TxDOT sees benefits of PFC and stone matrix asphalt in improving durability, safety, and ride quality over other hot mix asphalt options.
Moving towards a prosperous, low-carbon Europe Johannes Meier
- Europe can be prosperous and low-carbon. Immediate action is needed across all sectors to decarbonize Europe's economy and meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.
- Power generation needs to be largely decarbonized by 2050 through renewable energy and energy efficiency. Road transport must also electrify, and industry needs to shift to low-carbon processes.
- Capturing this energy savings potential will boost Europe's economy and energy security while also reducing emissions to net zero by 2050. Coordinated policy across all levels is required to realize this vision.

This document discusses financing regional transportation infrastructure solutions in California. It notes challenges like peak oil, climate change, and aging infrastructure. The SCAG region has fallen behind other major metro areas in per capita income growth. Proposition 13 relies more on sales and income taxes as the gas tax has not kept up with driving or inflation. The document proposes potential options like maintaining the status quo, pursuing more federal funding, and developing new regional solutions. It suggests pilot projects focusing on goods movement corridors and outlines concepts like user fee pricing to manage demand and finance needed investments.
The document discusses challenges facing goods movement in Southern California including population growth, rising trade volumes, safety, community impacts, and environmental concerns. It proposes potential solutions such as collaboration among agencies, private sector involvement, and community support. The document also describes the development of a comprehensive regional goods movement plan to address air quality, congestion, the economy, and previous statewide initiatives through consensus building and technical analysis.
Conservation for the Future InfrastructureLTC @ CSUSB
Conservation is crucial for future infrastructure needs. As populations grow and resources are strained, protecting open spaces and natural areas will become increasingly important for providing necessary services like water supply and flood control. Forward-thinking policies that balance development with conservation can help ensure communities have adequate infrastructure to support future generations.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
