Navigation and Intelligent Transportation Systems contains 40 papers covering the technical and functional aspects of these systems including: 3D mapping, route guidance, cellular phone access, electronic compasses, and the history and future of navigation systems. The book also covers the important role of navigation in Intelligent Transportation Systems concerned with traffic management, traveler information, vehicle control systems, commercial vehicle operations, and public and rural transportation systems. The book concludes with a chapter on the Intelligent Vehicle Initiative, a joint program between the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Federal Highway Administration, and the Federal Transit Administration.

Time Savings

The efficiency of pickup-and-delivery (P&D) activities of urban courier is adversely impacted by traffic congestion and lack of logistical innovations. The high frequency of P&D tasks offers the opportunity to achieve substantial savings in time through the implementation of route optimization, route guidance, and scheduling innovations. These innovations would require the intelligent transportation systems (ITS) technologies for their implementation. This paper describes how such time savings can be obtained. For testing the effect of network and operating conditions on time savings, a simulation study was undertaken on synthesized networks and logistical requirements. The results show that route guidance and scheduling systems yield highly significant time savings in the P&D operation of the courier industry.Key words: courier, intelligent transportation systems, route guidance, route planning, simulation.

Subject. The article considers functioning and development of process flows of transportation and logistics system of a smart city. Objectives. The study identifies factors and dependencies of the quality of human life on the organization and management of stream processes. Methods. I perform a comparative analysis of previous studies, taking into account the uniquely designed results, and the econometric analysis. Results. The study builds multiple regression models that are associated with stream processes, highlights interdependent indicators of temporary traffic and pollution that affect the indicator of life quality. However, the identified congestion indicator enables to predict the time spent in traffic jams per year for all participants of stream processes. Conclusions. The introduction of modern intelligent transportation systems as a component of the transportation and logistics system of a smart city does not fully solve the problems of congestion in cities at the current rate of urbanization and motorization. A viable solution is to develop cooperative and autonomous intelligent transportation systems based on the logistics approach. This will ensure control over congestion, the reduction of which will contribute to improving the life quality of people in urban areas.
