·         Provides Intelligent transportation system (ITS) planners and managers with practical tools and methodologies supporting economical and efficient design ·         Includes new chapters on the most cutting-edge advances in Active Transportation and Demand Management (ATDM), transportation corridors, coordination of traffic management centers, and evaluation of ITS designs and operations ·         Examples and cost-benefit analyses drawn from actual projects clearly illustrate concepts ·         Features methodologies and algorithms for automated evaluation using traffic management center data   Intelligent Transportation Systems: Functional Design for Effective Traffic Management  provides practical guidance on the efficient use of resources in  ITS designs. The author explains how functional design alternatives can meet project objectives and requirements with optimal cost effectiveness, and clarifies how transportation planning and traffic diversion principles relate to functional ITS device selections and equipment locations. Methodologies for translating objectives to functional device types, determining device deployment densities, and determining the best placement of CCTV cameras and dynamic message signs are provided, as are models for evaluating the benefits of design alternatives based on traffic conditions. Concepts for planning various geographic levels of diversion are described.  Readers will learn how to reduce recurrent and non-recurrent congestion, improve incident clearance time, , provide real-time incident information to motorists, and use transportation management center data to implement  lane use and speed controls that are key to new active transportation and demand management (ATDM) methods.  The author describes the processes and algorithms for using transportation management center data to evaluate ITS performance, and offers examples of how states have organized evaluation results into performance reports for use by decision makers and the public. The book focuses on ITS treatments that improve safety and mobility, reduce motorist delays, improve the use of energy and reduce vehicle emissions. This resource will greatly benefit all ITS designers and managers, and is of pivotal importance for operating agencies performing evaluations to justify operational funding and system expansions.

(...) , l'étalement urbain combiné à la recomposition des villes remodèle la géographie fabriquant des territoires hybrides, ni urbains, ni ruraux. A partir de l'analyse du cas français, mais considérant aussi l'Amérique, l'Asie et l'Afrique, l'ouvrage étudie les effets conjoints des infrastuctures routières, des lotissments pavillonnaires et des centres commerciaux. Attentif aux conséquences morphologiques, économiques et sociales, l'auteur révèle les convergences planétaires autour d'un urbanisme de secteurs et d'une ville franchisée. Ce qualificatif doit s'entendre dans le sens commercial des villes saisies par les logiques du marketing mais aussi dans l'acceptation domaniale du terme, à savoir la privatisation progressive d'espaces toujours plus vastes. David Mangin dénonce ces environnments sécurisés, de moins en moins publics et gratuits, qui prolifèrent insidieusement en centre-ville autant qu'en périphérie. Il s'emploie ici, (...), à défendre le principe de la "ville passante" fondé sur l'idée d"une moindre dépendance automobile, d'une forte hétérogénéité des architectures et d'une véritables diversité d'usages.
