Abstract

The U.S. trip was undertaken with the following aims:

(1) To provide one essential part of the information needed for the preparation of the volume on "Computerized Urban Traffic Control and Guidance Systems (CUTC)" of IIASA's state-of-the-art series. This CUTC volume will contain several case descriptions dealing with advanced computer applications operational in tile U.S. Therefore, an essential concern of the trip was to meet with possible authors of these case descriptions and to visit the corresponding advanced systems.

(2) To meet with possible participants for a planning conference on future transportation research work at IIASA. This conference will take place during the week of February 16-20, 1976, in connection with the IFAC workshop on "Optimization Applied to Transportation" sponsored by IIASA.

(3) To take part in the IFAC (International Federation on Automatic Control) World Congress in Boston, August 24-10, 1975; presentation of a paper and serving as vice-chairman of session 4, "Transportation Systems."
