increasing urban network has both positive (accessibility) and negative (air pollution) impacts. in this research air quality is chosen as key elements with respect to their critical roles in quality of life and urban health. the overall objective of this study is to develop a mathematical model to plan appropriate locations for residential land uses and urban transportation network development...

The study emphasizes the importance of creating a sustainable public transportation system that people can use comfortably. This approach aims to deliver plans focused on people, society and space. Developing systems contribute social equality by appealing all segments reducing traffic density has become one main objectives plans. Ensuring accessibility stops is crucial aspect achieving this ob...

Travel, like many other aspects of daily life is being transformed by the information technology revolution. Accessibility can no longer be measured only in terms of travel time, distance or generalized travel cost. Telecommunications provides people with virtual accessibility to a rapidly growing range of activities and real-time information about travel conditions. E-commerce has become a cat...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this systematic review was to determine the relationship between a wide range of physical environmental characteristics and different contexts of active transportation in 6- to 12-year-old children across different continents. METHODS A systematic search was conducted in six databases (Pubmed, Web of Science, Cinahl, SportDiscus, TRIS and Cochrane) resulting in 65 pa...

Travel, like many other aspects of daily life is being transformed by the information technology revolution. Accessibility can no longer be measured only in terms of travel time, distance or generalized travel cost. Information technology gives people virtual accessibility to a rapidly growing range of activities. E-commerce has become a catalyst for structural changes in the freight transporta...

This paper introduces the concept of accessibility from the field of transportation planning and adopts it within the context of Information Retrieval (IR). An analogy is drawn between the fields, which motivates the development of document accessibility measures for IR systems. Considering the accessibility of documents within a collection given an IR System provides a different perspective on...
