City extensions : the revitalization of Denver Colorado's Platte River Valley
This thesis examines a process for future city growth in Denver, Colorado. Its objective is to develop a model by which future expansion of the city might build qualities of continuity and identity between adjacent sections of the city and the Platte River through the revitalization and extension …

Simulation and queueing network model formulation of mixed automated and non-automated traffic in urban settings
… Mixed traffic is simulated in a simple network featuring traffic flowing through an isolated signalized intersection. The green phase length, autonomous vehicle penetration rate, and demand rate are varied. We observe an increase in network capacity and a decrease in average delay as …

Game Theory Approach to Transportation Network Vulnerability Measurement
<p>The vulnerability of a transportation network is strongly correlated with the ability of the network to withstand shocks and disruptions. A robust network with strategic redundancy allows for the redistribution or reassignment of traffic without unduly compromising system performance. As such, …

Multi-model simulation-based optimization applied to urban transportation
… models to evaluate the impacts of changes in network design or network operations. They often have multiple traffic simulation tools that cover the network area where changes are to be made. Nonetheless, these multiple simulators may differ in their modeling assumptions (e.g., macroscopic …

Community-oriented architecture for smart cities
… sensing, progress in wireless communication and networking techniques, as well as the development of the Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing, mobile-based community sensing has turned into a leading paradigm for pervasive sensing. Smartphones with embedded sensors have become ubiquitous …

Investigating geospatial social capital networks for industry‐based grassroot economies : the case of Damietta, Egypt
… this context form the main economic base of the city socially inherited through generations. The research examines the hypothesis of social capital being the main success factor of this economic cluster, building on Porter’s Competitive Advantage theory and Putnam’s social capital theory, linking …

Exploration and Exploitation Techniques for High-Dimensional Simulation-Based Optimization Problems in Urban Transportation
… popular tools for modeling urban transportation networks. However, their use for optimizing urban transportation networks can be challenging due to their computationally intensive nature. This thesis focuses on high-dimensional simulation-based (SO) optimization problems. To find solutions with …
