Allocating city space to multiple transportation modes:
A macroscopic modeling approach is proposed for allocating a city’s road space among competing transport modes. In this approach, a city or neighborhood street network is viewed as a reservoir with aggregated traffic. Taking the number of vehicles (accumulation) in a reservoir as input, we show how one can reliably predict system performance in terms of person and vehicle hours spent in the sys...
متن کاملA Bit-Parallel Search Algorithm for Allocating Free Space
File systems that allocate data contiguously often use bitmaps to represent and manage free space. Increases in the size of storage to be managed creates a need for efficient algorithms for searching these bitmaps. We present an algorithm that exploits bit-parallelism, examining all bits within a processor word at the same time, to improve search performance. Measurements of our implementation ...
متن کاملSpace life sciences: closed ecological systems: earth and space applications.
This issue contains peer-reviewed papers from a workshop on Closed Ecological Systems: Earth and Space Applications at the 35th COSPAR General Assembly in Paris, France, convened in July 2004. The contributions reflected the wide range of international work in the field, especially Europe, Russia, Japan, and the United States. The papers are arranged according to four main themes: 1) Methods of...
متن کاملAllocating surveillance resources to reduce ecological invasions: maximizing detections and information about the threat.
Allocating resources to detect invasive pests, diseases, and pathogens on exposure pathways requires a trade-off between the need to detect as many contaminated items as possible and the need to acquire knowledge about contamination rates. We develop a model and an algorithm that provide guidance for the allocation of inspection resources across multiple dynamic pathways in cases where not ever...
متن کاملParameter space exploration of ecological models
In recent years, we are seeing the formulation and use of elaborate and complex models in ecological studies. The questions related to the efficient, systematic and error-proof exploration of parameter spaces are of great importance to better understand, estimate confidences and make use of the output from these models. In this work, we investigate some of the relevant questions related to para...
