• The State-of-the-Art in ITS. New Meta-Level Principles for an Untapped ITS Technological Mine. Fundamental Issues in Transportation Systems. DARYN: A Distributed Decision-Making Algorithm for Railway Networks. RYNSORD: A Novel, Decentralized Algorithm for Railway Networks with Soft Reservation. DICAF: A Distributed, Scalable Architecture for IVHS. Stability of RYNSORD under Perturbations. Modeling and Simulation Techniques for ITS Designs. Future Issues in Intelligent Transportation Systems. Description of the RYNSORD Simulator on CD-ROM and Scope of Experiments. Bibliography. Index.

"The strengths of the book include the advanced concepts and innovative thinking about ITS and its role in transportation. The authors make some persuasive arguments for change as well as providing some practical examples of `how to' change and `what you get' for the effort to make changes. … Operations and computer simulation professionals would appear to benefit from the techniques and as well as the ideas."—Tim Lomax, Texas Transportation Institute "… a very useful addition to the transportation/ITS literature. The writers are certainly aware of the concomitant issues and have done a good job of writing their particular take on the topic."—Chelsea C. White, III, Georgia Institute of Technology
