Abstract

This volume summarizes the results of the first Workshop initiated by the Working Group on Transportation, which was established by the Systems Engineering Committee (SECOM) of the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC). Three levels of transportation systems analysis are utilized as a framework:

-- Transportation systems planning from a socio-economic point of view;

-- Operational planning, mainly focusing on routing and scheduling problems; and,

-- Control and guidance of transportation systems.

Formal presentations dealing with the state-of-the-art of transportation systems and selected specific topics are included in the proceedings, as well as summaries of panel discussions which followed the individual sessions.
