17th International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory

2007年，伦敦将举办世界上最重要的运输和交通理论会议，第17届国际运输和交通理论研讨会（ISTT 17）。这一系列专题讨论会对已建立和有抱负的学者和研究人员非常重要，为新理论和重要的经验结果提供了一个高度选择性的出口。每次研讨会都开放给提交有关运输和交通理论及其应用的任何主题的论文。覆盖范围取决于哪些提交的材料被国际同行审查评为最重要的，为开创性的贡献提供了肥沃的环境。自1959年成立以来，这些研讨会为运输领域的理论和实践进步提供了强大的动力，并激励了几个国家的持续研究。按照传统，第17次专题讨论会将有选择性地收取捐款，但在出席方面将包括所有人，特别是初级学者和研究人员，因此预计登记费与成本之间会有差额。与EPSRC对其他专题讨论会的支持一样，例如GR/S56764/01（评级优秀），该提案将为开创性的科学贡献提供一个英国论坛，为年轻的英国研究人员带来国际认可，并刺激与英国大学的国际合作。

In 2007 London will be hosting the world's foremost meeting on transportation and traffic theory, the 17th International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory (ISTTT17). Of great importance to established and aspiring academics and researchers, this series of symposia provides a highly selective outlet for new theory and important empirical results. Each symposium has been open to the submission of papers on any topic relevant to transportation and traffic theory and its application. The coverage is determined by which submissions are judged by international peer review to be the most significant, providing a fertile environment for seminal contributions. Since its inception in 1959, these symposia have provided a powerful stimulus for advances in theory and practice in the transport field, and have inspired continuing research in and across several countries. In keeping with tradition, the 17th symposium will be selective in terms of the contributions but inclusive in terms of attendance, in particular by junior academics and researchers, so a shortfall between registration fees and costs is anticipated. As with EPSRC support of other symposia, for example GR/S56764/01 (graded outstanding ), this proposal would provide a UK forum for seminal scientific contributions, bring international recognition to younger UK researchers, and stimulate international collaboration with UK universities.
