- About this book
- Contains contributions from leading experts from both economics/business and engineering backgrounds
- Provides numerous cases studies of network reliability decisions
- Develops an integrative framework for assessing reliability and examining at implementation issues
The scope of the chapters includes all aspects of analysis and design to improve network reliability, specifically user perception of unreliability of public transport, public policy and reliability of travel times, the valuation and economics of reliability, network reliability modeling and estimation, travel behavior and vehicle routing under uncertainty, and risk evaluation and management for transportation networks. The book combines new methodologies and state of the art practice to model and address questions of network unreliability, making it of interest to both academics in transportation and engineering as well as policy-makers and practitioners.
