The organizing committee of STRC has the pleasure to announce the call for abstracts for the 2019 Swiss Transport Research Conference.
The conference is a forum that brings together Swiss researchers adopting many different approaches to understanding transport phenomena. As such, the conference hosts topics across a wide spectrum in transport and land use: from logistics and travel behavior, traffic engineering, railway engineering, to environmental impact analysis and land use modeling. The following keynote speakers have confirmed their attendance:
| Keynote Speakers | Institution |
|---|---|
| Emma Frejinger | Department of Computer Science and Operations Research, Université de Montréal |
| David Hensher | Institute of Transport and Logistics Studies, The University of Sydney Business School |
| Martin Savelsbergh | H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering, Georgia Tech |
The STRC is an excellent venue to catch up on the state of transport research in Switzerland. The conference will take place on the Monte Verità, Ascona (Ticino) at the Centro Stefano Franscini of ETH Zurich.
To submit a paper, please prepare an abstract (no more than 200 words) with a standard text processor, and submit it to strc@usi.ch. Deadline for abstract submission: 22 February 2019. Please save the file as Surname1_surname2_strc19. To encourage participation, a full paper will be assigned to every researcher who will be responsible for giving feedback to the authors during the presentation.
