Structure, Behavior And Performance In For-Profit, Nonprofit And Government Organizations
In this paper we examine empirically the association between organization type on the one hand and organization structure, organizational behavior, and organizational performance on the other hand, focusing on different types of organization that coexist in the same industry. We consider for-profit, nonprofit and government nursing homes (of the skilled...
High Performance Spatial Visualization of Traffic Data
The latest visualizations techniques for identifying performance bottlenecks with loop-detector traffic data are not sufficient for large data sets to create interactive visualization and analysis of possible scenarios. This study seeks to develop a more effective means of processing data obtained at the Traffic Management Center TMC to identify recurring...
Profitability, Productivity And Price Recovery Patterns In The U.S. Telecommunications Industry
The authors have undertaken a study where they examine changes in the profitability, productivity and price recovery of firms in the U.S. telecommunications industry over a sixteen-year period. The performance of thirty-three major companies was assessed in the local-exchange sector over six time periods 1975, 1978, 1981, 1984, 1987 and...
The Rational Locator Reexamined: Are Travel Times Still Stable?
This paper concentrates on the rational locator hypothesis, which posits that individuals can maintain approximately steady journey-to-work travel times by adjusting their home and workplace. This hypothesis was coupled with the observation of long-term stability in drive alone journey-to-work times in metropolitan Washington (those times were unchanged from 1957 through...
Low Temperature Cracking of Asphalt Concrete Pavement
This report investigates the low temperature behavior of asphalt pavements based on experimental results obtained for three mixtures used in the construction of cells 33, 34, and 35 at Mn/ROAD facility as well as field information acquired over the years at Mn/ROAD. Because of this research, a new test method...
Evaluation Report Volume 1: System Performance and Human Factors - Intelligent Vehicle Initiative Specialty Vehicle Field Operational Test
This report documents the evaluation efforts undertaken by the Minnesota Team. To complement the work undertaken by the independent government evaluator, Battelle, the Minnesota evaluation team focused on two specific areas of the evaluation: human factors and benefit-cost analyses. Human factors issues include driver acceptance, reduction in driver fatigue, the...
System Performance and Human Factors Evaluation of the Driver Assistive System (DAS): Supplemental Track Test Evaluation
This track test supplements an attempted field operational test (Rakauskas et al., 2003) which did not provide enough experience using the Driver Assistive System DAS during low-visibility conditions to make reasonable conclusions on driving performance. This study aimed to determine the usefulness of the DAS in the context of simulated...
The Effectiveness of Auditory Side- and Forward-Collision Warnings in Winter Driving Conditions
This study determines how auditory side- and forward-collision avoidance warnings affect drivers traveling on snow-covered roads in poor visibility conditions. The intent is to identify warnings that are effective and sufficiently urgent but cause minimal annoyance. The majority of the tasks the snowplow operator performs are visual in nature. Warnings...
His or Hers? Employer-Based Health Insurance Offers and Two-Earner Households
This paper uses data from the Household Component of the 1996 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey to explore whether or not two-earner households appear to make joint job choices with respect to employer-based health insurance. It provides some evidence that the household choice set is not exogenous but that, instead, workers...
Ramp Meters on Trial: Evidence From the Twin Cities Ramp Meters Metering Holiday
Ramp meters in the Twin Cities have been the subject of a recent test of their effectiveness, involving turning them off for 8 weeks. This paper analyzes the results with and without ramp metering for several representative freeways during the afternoon peak period. Seven performance measures: mobility, equity, productivity, consumers'...
