CKJSSTS 2014 - China-Korea Joint Seminar on Sustainable Transportation Systems (CKJSSTS)

Since 1950, more than 50% of the total world population is in Asia, and Asia is undergoing fast increase in urban population with the progress of fast urbanization. Developing efficient urban transport systems and providing more environmentally friendly modes, in highly populated Asian cities, can benefit to improve the mobility, decrease the dependency of private cars, and alleviate traffic congestion. It is therefore important to quantify the environmental effects and take their effects into account when designing, planning, managing and controlling transportation networks. Sustainable transportation concerns systems, policies, and technologies, and the development of sustainable transportation system provides a valuable opportunity for academic communities and practitioners facing challenges for the reduction of traffic congestion and its impact on the environment and the development of rapid innovative solutions.
The purpose of the CKJSSTS-III is to promote the sustainable development of transport system in typical cities in Asia, and to bring contributions to the environmental, social and economic sustainability of the communities they serve with the cooperation. It is the gathering for the main pioneer traffic and transportation practitioners in China and South-Korea, and also, those who are interested in contributing to or gaining a deeper understanding of the field on the advanced level.
The Joint Seminar will focus on contributions to the following topics, but are not limited to:
Sustainable development strategies for urban travel demand management
Sustainable development of urban transport network in cities of Asia
Mass transit system management and planning for sustainable development
Road pricing with environmental externality
Tradable credit and emission pollution permits
Traffic assignment with environmental constraints
Spatial Activity and Transport Interactions
Real-time Information, Travel Behavior and System Management
Travel Behavior Processes and Demand Modeling
Pedestrian and Crowd Modeling
Transport Safety
Network Modeling
Routing and Scheduling in Transportation Systems
