Public acceptance has often been named as a key factor for the successful realization of transport projects and policies. One reason, why even economically efficient projects might not be accepted by the major part of the population, could be the unequal distribution of benefits. For instance,...

Das Working Paper "Promovierte auf dem Weg zur Professur" entstand im Kontext des Projekts "Juniorprofessur". Das Papier fasst die Ergebnisse leitfadengestützter Interviews mit Postdocs, die eine Professur anstreben, über ihre Arbeitssituation, ihre Wege in die Wissenschaft sowie ihre...

Gegenstand der Untersuchung sind die Studiencurricula der Fächer Chemie, Maschinenbau und Soziologie. Analysiert wurden das Studienangebot und der jeweils zentrale Studiengang der drei Fächer an drei Universitäten vor und nach der Bologna-Reform. Außerdem wurden Vertreter aus Verbänden und...

In a multi-agent transportation simulation, each traveler is represented individually. Such simulation consist of at least the following modules: - Activity generation. For each traveler in the simulation, a complete 24-hour day-plan is generated, with each major activity (sleep, eat, work,...

Activity locations such as work locations or leisure facilities are not uniformly distributed geographically. Also, the travel access to different locations is not uniform. It is plausible to assume that locations with easier access to other activity locations are more attractive than locations...

Accessibility indicators take land use, the transport system, and their interdependencies into account in a holistic fashion. In many areas, however, spatial data to perform accessibility calculations are hard to obtain or not available at all. Freely available volunteered geographic information...
