Intelligent traffic and transport systems combine the skills and management technologies of engineering, artificial intelligence, information technology and telecommunications to improve the efficiency of traffic and transport, benefitting the environment by reducing air and noise pollution and helping to create traffic free zones in cities. The management of public transport systems and vehicle fleets can also be improved by the provision of on-line information and better communication. This book presents the proceedings of ICITT2022, the 6th International Conference on Intelligent Traffic and Transportation, held in Paris, France from 25 – 27 September 2022. ICITT is a major annual event for the academics, researchers and industrialists engaged in intelligent traffic and transportation research, and is a friendly and inclusive platform that brings together a broad community of researchers sharing the common goal of developing and managing the engineering and technology key to sustaining the success of the intelligent traffic and transportation industries. The theme of the 2022 conference was Smart Digital Traffic and Transportation, and the book includes 15 papers, selected after a rigorous peer-review process. The papers are divided into 4 sections, which cover intelligent traffic and transportation; transportation in future smart cities; mobility and cyber-physical systems; and intelligent automation and ICT-enabled collaborative global systems. Covering a wide range of topics, the book will be of interest to all those working in the field of intelligent traffic and transportation.
In recent decades, China has transitioned from an inherently agricultural country to an emerging economic titan with a vast transportation network that befits its newly globalized status. Through this fast-paced economic development, the country soon became a nation of drivers. By 2019, the country had 260 million automobiles and 397 million drivers, most of whom were only years from being a novice. In 2019 alone, another 26 million new drivers joined the Chinese roadways. At the same time, China encountered many traffic-related problems: overcrowded urban areas, a deteriorating environment, the chaos of traffic signs, the building boom due to urbanization, and the pressure of traffic management, among others. Historically, China was never a country adept at traffic and transportation. Despite this, it has been trying to catch up with the world’s pace and to welcome its guests from across the globe. This book zeroes in on the authentic discourses in Chinese traffic by demonstrating the interaction between traffic signs and their users (specifically the new drivers who are unfamiliar with traffic contexts, driving, or the Chinese language). Guangzhou (Canton), a prosperous first-tier city with over 20 million residents, was chosen as the sampling area for this study. The book scrutinizes the city’s traffic signage, its drivers’ experiences, and its traffic authorities’ comments in order to provide a true picture of China, shifting from a country with big traffic to one with modern traffic.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Joint Conference on Rules and Reasoning, RuleML+RR 2023, held in Oslo, Norway, during September 18–20, 2023. The 13 full papers and 3 short papers included in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. They focus on all aspects of theoretical advances; novel technologies; innovative applications; knowledge representation; reasoning with rules; and research, development, applications of rule-based systems.

This book develops a stimulating new way of looking at texts, with case studies from Western and Indian literature.
This book on road traffic congestion in cities and suburbs describes congestion problems and shows how they can be relieved. The first part (Chapters 1 - 3) shows how congestion reflects transportation technologies and settlement patterns. The second part (Chapters 4 - 13) describes the causes, characteristics, and consequences of congestion. The third part (Chapters 14 - 23) presents various relief strategies - including supply adaptation and demand mitigation - for nonrecurring and recurring congestion. The last part (Chapter 24) gives general guidelines for congestion relief and provides a general outlook for the future. The book will be useful for a wide audience - including students, practitioners and researchers in a variety of professional endeavors: traffic engineers, transportation planners, public transport specialists, city planners, public administrators, and private enterprises that depend on transportation for their activities.
Good Cop, Bad Cop looks at the rise of racial profiling, one of the most important and hotly debated topics in criminal justice, and traces its development from its origins in criminal profiling, through the use of profiles in drug trafficking prevention efforts in airports and on the U.S. highways, until it became synonymous with racial discrimination by law enforcement. The authors draw upon an extensive body of primary sources, social science literature, and court cases to examine how law enforcement, legislators, and the courts have handled racial profiling. They also review the debate over racial profiling, offering arguments made by its opponents and defenders before and after the events of September 11 and describe its development as both a legal and a cultural concept.
