This book presents many valuable research methods useful in conducting research in modern urban transportation systems and networks.

This book contains an abundance of numerical analyses based on significant data sets, illustrating importance of environmentally friendly solutions requiring transport networks to be redesigned or clean zones to be implemented. What kind of steps should be taken to redesign transport network? How to evaluate efficiency or flexibility of transport system and city logistics? What factors can be taken into account in the process of optimizing the functioning of public transport or paid parking zones? How to optimize supply chains (including last mile delivering and routing problem)? Which of the multi-criteria methods should be applied to support decision making processes while tackling problems of global transport systems? Answers to these and many other questions can be found in this book.With regard to the research results discussed and the selected solutions applied, the book entitled "Decision support methods in modern transportation systems and networks" primarilyaddresses the needs of three target groups:· Scientists and researchers (ITS field)· Local authorities (responsible for the transport systems at the urban and regional level)· Representatives of business (traffic strategy management) and industry (manufacturers of ITS components).

This book focuses on the importance of human factors in the development of safe and reliable robotic and unmanned systems. It discusses solutions for improving the perceptual and cognitive abilities of robots, developing suitable synthetic vision systems, coping with degraded reliability in unmanned systems, and predicting robotic behavior in relation to human activities. It covers the design of improved, easy to use, human¿system interfaces, together with strategies for increasing human¿system performance, and reducing cognitive workload at the user interface. It also discusses real-world applications and case studies of human-robot and human-agent collaboration in different business and educational endeavors. The second part of the book reports on research and developments in the field of human factors in cybersecurity.Contributions cover the technological, social, economic and behavioral aspects of the cyberspace, providing a comprehensive perspective to manage cybersecurityrisks. Based on the two AHFE 2021 Conferences such as the AHFE 2021 Conference on Human Factors in Robots, Drones and Unmanned Systems, and the AHFE 2021 Conference on Human Factors in Cybersecurity, held virtually on 25¿29 July, 2021, from USA, this book offers extensive information and highlights the importance of multidisciplinary approaches merging engineering, computer science, business and psychological knowledge. It is expected to foster discussion and collaborations between researchers and practitioners with different background, thus stimulating new solutions for the development of reliable and safe, human-centered, highly functional devices to perform automated and concurrent tasks, and to achieve an inclusive, holistic approach for enhancing cybersecurity.

This book addresses the adoption of intelligent algorithms for resolving challenges in different aspects of the society such as sport, cyber-security, COVID-19 pandemic, advertising, driving, smart environment-sensors, blockchain, cloud computing, and health.

This book focuses on numerous examples of tasks represented by c-e structure. In particular, how computing with natural numbers and in propositional calculus can be performed by c-e structures and how to specify behavior of data structures.

This book emphasizes the role of micro-grid systems and connected networks for the strategic storage of energy through the use of information and communication techniques, big data, the cloud, and meta-heuristics to support the greed for artificial intelligence techniques in data and the implementation of global strategies to meet the challenges of the city in the broad sense. The intelligent management of renewable energy in the context of the energy transition requires the use of techniques and tools based on artificial intelligence (AI) to overcome the challenges of the intermittence of resources and the cost of energy. The advent of the smart city makes an increased call for the integration of artificial intelligence and heuristics to meet the challenge of the increasing migration of populations to the city, in order to ensure food, energy, and environmental security of the citizen of the city and his well-being. This book is intended for policymakers, academics, practitioners, andstudents. Several real cases are exposed throughout the book to illustrate the concepts and methods of the networks and systems presented. This book proposes the development of new technological innovations¿mainly ICT¿the concept of ¿Smart City¿ appears as a means of achieving more efficient and sustainable cities. The overall goal of the book is to develop a comprehensive framework to help public and private stakeholders make informed decisions on smart city investment strategies and develop skills for assessment and prioritization, including resolution of difficulties with deployment and reproducibility.
