This paper illustrates and extends our previous conceptual framework for the description of the components and interactions of transportation systems. The framework, which made use of the notions of procedure (or mapping) and steady state equilibrium, previously comprised demand, performance and...

This article puts forward the view that, for each transportation planning or management problem, there is a particular way to simultaneously define the multiple levels of procedures useful for the problem and set it in its proper perspective, the latter essentially by the identification of what...

We have shown that nonlinearity of the representative utility functions of the Logit model applied to an intercity mode choice model implied the presence of asymmetry and of thresholds in the response curve, as well as results that had more reasonable properties (diminishing marginal values of...

This paper presents an integrated conceptual framework for the description of the components and interactions of transportation systems. The abstraction presented makes use of the notions of procedures (mappings) and steady-state equilibria. Key elements of the conceptual framework include...
