In The Old Days…..
Policy was easy to implement
Today…..
So What?Need to evaluate existing or new policiesTraditional field studies are impractical and expensiveTraditional simulation models are unrealisticOptimization software does not address new approaches
So What (II)?SILS is a tool that offers many opportunities Training Evaluation Fine tuning Research Education
What Have We Learned From MOST?
New simulation environment •VISSIM•ASC/ 3 controller
SILS is an effective approach for trainingGetting the details right is hardGetting the details right is important
What’s Left to be Done?More labs on “advanced” featuresMore delivery capability for education and training
The FutureSILS will become more commonIt will become the standard for comparisonIt will allow even more experimentationThe software will become easier to useData requirements will become less
