Abstract:The joy of research is often in the doing; but the real objective of research and a focused passion of the task should be how the work will improve the nation's quality of life. Transportation systems are facing disruptive changes in technology, demographics and the environment. One of the challenges of disruptive change is increased complexity and difficulty in making accurate predictions of outcomes. We need powerful new tools to analyze the key elements - large and small - of the transportation system in today's more complex environment. At the same time, in a disruptive world, solutions are often found by stepping back from the micro toward a broader vision. We need integrated solutions that can lead to fundamental changes in the way that transportation systems are managed. In the New England Center, researchers are addressing these challenges through innovative research projects.
