some partial scholarships available for applicants.… tmip.org/content/early-bird-re

Traffic assignment algorithm micro-service (SaaS): Forums: Calls for papers

I’m just wondering if any vendors offer equilibrium traffic-assignment service in the cloud, as a Software as a Service? Since it’s often the most time-consuming part of any future exploration of scenarios and policy alternatives, it might make sense to offload it, and decouple it from the rest of the analysis.

I have some open-source Frank-Wolfe assignment software we could try to… tmip.org/content/traffic-assig

Short Range service planning tools for route/stop ridership and budgeting ???: Forums: 

I recently completed worked on a small system transit planning effort that required estimating the ridership impacts of different options along with their operating costs.   It resurfaced a long time interest and frustration due to lack of recent literature or common practice.

What tools/techniques are now being used for estimating the route / stop level ridership and budget… tmip.org/content/short-range-s
