CALL FOR PAPERS: INNOVATIONS IN TRAVEL MODELING 2008 PORTLAND, OREGON JUNE 22 to 24, 2008
Jointly sponsored by the Transportation Research Board, Federal Highway Administration, Federal Transit Administration, Oregon Department of Transportation, Portland Metro, and Portland State University. This conference will build on the highly successful ITM06 conference in Austin, examining innovative and promising advances in travel modeling, with an emphasis on moving state-of-the-art research into practice. The conference will focus on an open exchange of ideas between researchers and practitioners regarding recent advances in travel modeling, opportunities and challenges related to implementation, and directions for further research and development. Transportation professionals involved in the research, teaching, implementation, and use of travel models will find this conference timely and informative. The conference will include tracks focusing on activity-based models, linking demand and dynamic network models, communicating forecasts, policy and pricing analyses, and freight modeling. Workshops on activity-based models and climate change modeling are slated for Sunday afternoon before the conference. All sessions will be structured to permit audience participation in the conference. Some of the program will consist of invited presentations, while other parts will be based on responses to this call for papers. Submissions on the following themes are invited:
