OpenTransportNet (OTN) distributes a series of White Papers to showcase its innovative approach in the
technical implementation of the OTN Hubs, and to communicate key outcomes in terms of service creation
and harmonisation of transport related data.
The White Papers are intended to provide insights and share lessons learned to others interested in using
the OTN approach for aggregating, harmonizing and visualising transport data. The audience for these
White Papers are mainly city and regional authorities that maintain and aggregate diverse data sources and
stimulate innovation development in transport, and the wider community of developers and experts in the
field of (geo) data as an opportunity to network and exchange knowledge.
This first White Paper, in a series of three, focuses on the data harmonisation process of the OTN project,
and is structured along the following use cases: (1) metadata harmonization through the CKAN and Micka
metadata management tools, and the upcoming GeoDCAT-AP metadata profile, (2), the DataTank data
management system and (3) the harmonized data model for road network data.
The paper starts with the main concepts of data interoperability and harmonization. Next, the use cases
are described that were implemented in the OTN project until January 2016 with the collaboration of the
four pilot cities (Antwerp, Issy-les-Moulineaux, Birmingham and the Liberec Region) and with the
consultation of the standard bodies Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C), and the in-house research centre of the European Commission, the Joint Research
Centre (JRC). The White Paper ends with harmonization guidelines for cities and regions interested in using
the OTN approach, and next steps of the OTN project in harmonization.
The second White Paper will describe further transport-related use cases including the Smart Points of
Interest in RDF and the Open Land Use Map. The second paper will also elaborate on the licensing aspects
of the project. The last White Paper will provide testimonials of pilot cities and regions and their key
outcomes, including innovative ways of big data visualizations and the involvement of local communities in
the co-creation of services.

Big data traffic management in vehicular ad-hoc network IJECEIAES
Today, the world has experienced a new trend with regard to data system management, traditional database management tools have become outdated and they will no longer be able to process the mass of data generated by different systems, that's why big data is there to process this mass of data to bring out crucial information hidden in this data, and without big data technologies the treatment is very difficult to manage; among the domains that uses big data technologies is vehicular ad-hoc network to manage their voluminous data. In this article, we establish in the first step a method that allow to detect anomalies or accidents within the road and compute the time spent in each road section in real time, which permit us to obtain a database having the estimated time spent in all sections in real time, this will serve us to send to the vehicles the right estimated time of arrival all along their journey and the optimal route to attain their destination. This database is useful to utilize it like inputs for machine learning to predict the places and times where the probability of accidents is higher. The experimental results prove that our method permits us to avoid congestions and apportion the load of vehicles in all roads effectively, also it contributes to road safety.
Deriving on-trip route choices of truck drivers by utilizing Bluetooth data,...SalilSharma26
This paper models on-trip route choices of the truck drivers. Second, we assess the inefficiencies of those routing decisions. This paper utilizes Bluetooth data, loop detector data, and variable message sign data to model the route choices of truck drivers. The trucks are inferred from Bluetooth data by applying a Gaussian mixture model-based clustering technique. We apply both a binary logit model and a mixed logit model to derive the route choices of truck drivers on a case study between the port of Rotterdam and hinterland in the Netherlands. The model results indicate truck drivers significantly value travel distance, instantaneous travel time and lane closure information en-route. The estimate of travel distance varies significantly among truck drivers. While 38 percent of truck drivers do not take the shortest time path, 48 percent of truck drivers do not choose the system-optimal path.

The EUnetHTA perspective on the HTA databasePatrice Chalon
Presentation at HTAi Annual meeting 2017, panel session "Rescuing the HTA database – future options and challenges"
A central, international database for HTA reports and other HTA products is considered to be a vital source of information for healthcare researchers and stakeholders. The current HTA database, which contains over 15,000 documents submitted by numerous HTA agencies, was originally established by the International Network of Agencies for Health Technology Assessment (INAHTA) in 2007 and is available on the website of the UK Centre for Reviews and Dissemination (CRD). The database has so far been funded by the UK National Institute for Health Research (NIHR). Its existence is however endangered as future funding is unclear. If no alternative is found, it will no longer be maintained and only an archived version will be available. There would thus no longer be a single access point to HTA reports.
Previous research has indicated that more than 75% of HTA agencies use the HTA database and more than half adapt common HTA products from reports produced by other agencies.1 The lack of an HTA database would have a direct impact on these activities. Smaller HTA agencies would be particularly affected, as they often have insufficient resources to produce their own reports and rely on reports from larger agencies. The wider consequences should also be considered: for instance, the decreasing visibility of HTA reports would diminish their relevance. It may also become more difficult to establish collaborations between HTA agencies. The problem would thus affect the whole HTA community.
Often, however, a crisis also offers opportunities. The establishment of a new HTA database should include a re-evaluation of its structure and technical functions (e.g. inclusion of ongoing projects).
Structure of the session: Short presentations will be held to provide an overview of the different perspectives of the various HTA agencies and networks currently involved in the discussions on the future of the HTA database. The panel will focus on the initiatives to rescue the database and present the options for funding, hosting, structure and technical functions. There will also be a guided discussion on the possible solutions presented and the challenges faced.
Panel/Workshop outcome and objectives: At the end of the session, participants should be aware of the overall importance of the HTA database, the current status quo, and the potential features of a future HTA database.

Linked Open Data (LOD) has gained significant momentum over the past years as a best practice of promoting the sharing and publi- cation of structured data on the semantic Web. Currently LOD is reach- ing significant adoption also in Public Administrations (PAs), where it is often required to be connected to existing platforms, such as GIS-based data management systems. Bearing on previous experience with the pi- oneering data.cnr.it, through Semantic Scout, as well as the Agency for Digital Italy recommendations for LOD in Italian PA, we are working on the extraction, publication, and exploitation of data from the Geographic Information System of the Municipality of Catania, referred to as SIT (“Sistema Informativo Territoriale”). The goal is to boost the metropolis towards the route of a modern Smart City by providing prototype inte- grated solutions supporting transport, public health, urban decor, and social services, to improve urban life. In particular a mobile application focused on real-time road traffic and public transport management is currently under development to support sustainable mobility and, espe- cially, to aid the response to urban emergencies, from small accidents to more serious disasters. This paper describes the results and lessons learnt from the first work campaign, aiming at analyzing, reengineering, linking, and formalizing the Shape-based geo-data from the SIT.

Building smart green mobility in South Tyrol through an open data hubSpeck&Tech
ABSTRACT: For decades the traditional approach for solving mobility and transportation challenges has been based on the idea of creating new road or rail infrastructures. Thanks to the impressive enhancement of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) technologies, in the last years this approach is going into the direction of rather improving the efficiency of how available transportation infrastructure is used. New digital infrastructures allow all mobility actors (vehicles, pedestrians, sensors, traffic management centers) to cooperate together to achieve the ambitious goal of improving mobility, enhancing safety, reducing congestion and environmental impacts. But how can we achieve this and ensure that public and private actors efficiently work together? In South Tyrol we have tried to give an answer to these challenges through the implementation of an open data hub, which enables the real-time data / information exchange among all interested parties and fosters the multiplication of development of research & innovation projects between local companies, research centers and public organizations. After years of implementation, the Open Data Hub South Tyrol is now creating the premises for a new historical phase for mobility in the region, with concepts like Mobility-as-a-Service or environmental traffic management that are finally moving from research to deployment.
BIO: Roberto Cavaliere is an ITS Project Manager at NOI Techpark Südtirol / Alto Adige, a public-owned organization in the Italian alpine region of South Tyrol coordinating the NOI Tech Park and with the mission to drive and foster research & innovation in the region. Roberto is the reference person in NOI for all initiatives in the field of ITS and smart mobility and in the last 10 years has coordinated a relevant number of EU-funded projects in this field. His main interests cover cooperative systems, autonomous driving, ITS for the environment, mobility-as-a-service and sharing mobility, road weather information systems (RWIS).
Join us for an exciting session where you can explore the future of open-source technology and innovation projects based on FIWARE and supported by FIWARE team. Our experts will share their insights on how FIWARE standards and components are revolutionizing the tech industry. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from a variety of presenters showcasing ongoing projects that leverage FIWARE. From dynamic digital twins to satellite open data for smart cities, to boosting EU high-value datasets, this session will provide a glimpse into the exciting possibilities of FIWARE technology. Don't miss out on this chance to learn about the latest innovation and collaborate with like-minded professionals!
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].

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
Adjusting OpenMP PageRank : SHORT REPORT / NOTESSubhajit Sahu
For massive graphs that fit in RAM, but not in GPU memory, it is possible to take
advantage of a shared memory system with multiple CPUs, each with multiple cores, to
accelerate pagerank computation. If the NUMA architecture of the system is properly taken
into account with good vertex partitioning, the speedup can be significant. To take steps in
this direction, experiments are conducted to implement pagerank in OpenMP using two
different approaches, uniform and hybrid. The uniform approach runs all primitives required
for pagerank in OpenMP mode (with multiple threads). On the other hand, the hybrid
approach runs certain primitives in sequential mode (i.e., sumAt, multiply).
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
