Proposals should address all of the following aspects:
- Identify
major conceptual, methodological and technical needs for analysis,
monitoring and assessment of new and emerging mobility trends and
solutions.
- Examine how conventional concepts and variables such
as, for example, efficiency, reliability, safety, comfort and security
evolve with the new mobility concepts and the new societal and
industrial structures to which the future transport network will provide
services.
- Identify major new concepts and variables that play
an increasingly important role in transport/mobility analysis, and
devise methods to estimate/quantify them.
- Elaborate advanced methods and tools for monitoring, assessment and analysis of mobility solutions.
- Review
and assess a range of options for collecting and using new data,
through new data collection and management approaches, as well as new
methods and tools to exploit data (such as, for example, ‘Big Data’),
taking into account different type of variables such as gender, age,
ethnicity, etc. when relevant.
Proposals can choose to
focus either on passenger or logistics/freight sectors. Proposals should
build on the latest state of the art in the research domain.
