description: Antidepressant drugs are too often ineffective, the exact mechanism of efficacy is still ambiguous, and there has been a paucity of novel targets for pharmacotherapy. In an attempt to understand the pathogenesis of depression and subsequently develop more efficacious antidepressant drugs, multiple theories have been proposed, including the modulation of neurotransmission, the upregulation of neurogenesis and neurotrophic factors, normalizing hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) reactivity, and the reduction of neuroinflammation; all of which have supporting lines of evidence. Therefore, an ideal molecular target for novel pharmaceutical intervention would function at the confluence of these theories. The polysialylated form of the neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM) functions broadly, serving to mediate synaptic plasticity, neurogenesis, neurotrophic factor signalling, and inflammatory signalling throughout the brain; all of which are associated with the pathophysiology and treatment of depression. Moreover, the expression of PSA-NCAM is reduced by depression, and conversely enhanced by antidepressant treatment, particularly within the hippocampus. Here we demonstrate that selectively degrading the polysialic acid moiety using the bacteriophage-derived enzyme endoneuraminidase N, completely inhibits the antidepressant efficacy of the selective-serotonin reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine (FLX) in a chronic unpredictable stress model of depression. We also observe a corresponding attenuation of FLX-induced hippocampal neuroplasticity, including decreased hippocampal neurogenesis, synaptic density, and neural activation. These data indicate that PSA-NCAM-mediated neuroplasticity is necessary for antidepressant action; therefore PSA-NCAM represents an interesting, and novel, target for pharmacotherapy.

description: Ved enhver form for modellering træffes der subjektive vurderinger, men det er ikke alle vurderingsmetoder der åbner op for diskussion og gennemsigtighed for denne subjektivitet. For at tilvejebringe et tillidsvækkende beslutningsgrundlag for infrastrukturprojekter med stor offentlig bevågenhed, er det vigtigt, at der fokuseres på at anvende gennemskuelige vurderingsmetoder, der leverer den nødvendige beslutningsstøtte for beslutningstagerne samtidig med, at det øger forståelsen for vurderingsprocessen og beslutningsgrundlaget. Det skal i den sammenhæng understreges, at det primære formål med beslutningsstøtte og modellering af beslutningsmodeller først og fremmest bør være at skabe indsigt og forståelse, frem for at definere én "korrekt" løsning. Ofte er processen med at strukturere problemstillingen og diskussionen herom mere værdifuld end selve det numeriske resultat fra en given evalueringsmodel. I denne artikel præsenteres, hvorledes en kombination af cost-benefit analyse og multi-kriterie analyse kan danne grundlag for en effektiv og helhedsorienteret beslutningsstøttemodel for evaluering af baneprojekter. Ved hjælp af cost-benefit analysen er det muligt at foretage en systematisk kvantificering og sammenholdelse af de monetære effekter, som projektet direkte medfører. Multi-kriterie analysen anvendes som et supplement til cost-benefit analysen og angiver et mål for, hvordan alternativerne præsterer i forhold til hinanden på baggrund af effekter, som ikke direkte kan fastsættes ud fra monetære forhold. Ved at kombinere analyserne (MCA + CBA) er det muligt at sammenholde forskellige projekter/alternativer og se på deres samlede økonomiske og samfundsmæssige effekter i forhold til hinanden. Evalueringsmetoden er blevet anvendt i forbindelse med udredning af det mest optimale tracé for bybane mellem Solakrossen og lufthavnsterminalen på Stavanger Lufthavn i Norge, som Atkins Danmark har gennemført på vegne af Bybanekontoret på Nord-Jæren.

title: Lifting "The Veil": Henry O. Tanner's The Banjo Lesson and The Thankful Poor
Creators: name: Wilson, Judith
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 1992

description: Henry O. Tanner's 1893 painting, The Banjo Lesson, marks a turning point in African American art history. It was Tanner's first masterpiece, the first work in which he demonstrated his control of a range of technical skills unmatched by any previous Black artist. For with Tanner we have the first Afro-American suited for greatness in the visual arts not only by talent and by temperament, but also by training. Indeed his study with the eminent American realist, Thomas Eakins, at the period's leading art school, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, provided him with the most advanced art education then available in the U.S. And subsequently, when a nine-year struggle to survive as an artist in his native land was ended by a generous pair of patrons who enabled him to go abroad, Tanner gained access to Europe's cultural resources an experience then considered indispensable, the final step in an American artist's training. Thus, Tanner probably was the first U.S. Black fully equipped to succeed as a painter in the western tradition.
Comparative Study of Students’ Emotional Correlations, Academic Information-Seeking Behaviour, and Library Services in Special Schools in Karnataka, India

subject: Library studies

description: The study examines a comparative analysis of students’ emotional correlations, academic information-seeking behavior, and library services in special schools in Karnataka, India. The research data was gathered using qualitative and quantitative methods, including in-depth interviews, survey methods, and focus groups conducted among 2054 specially-abled students in Karnataka. The study is confined to visual and hearing-impaired students. Students from both groups demonstrated high emotional similarity (strong positive correlation, r= .928). However, hearing-impaired students exhibited stronger information-seeking behavior (significant t-value, 3.145). While libraries offered similar service types to both groups (t-value, 1.145), visually impaired students had better access to assistive technology (significant t-value, 5.678), highlighting a resource disparity and suggesting libraries require strategies tailored to student needs.

description: Trafikstyrelsen har gennemført en screening af mulighederne for at udvide S‐togsbetjeningen til Helsingør og Roskilde. Her er forskellige løsningsmuligheder undersøgt og evalueret i en samfundsøkonomisk analyse. Resultaterne viser, at man kan sigte efter ibrugtagning i 2020, hvor man bør satse på en fuld ombygning til S‐baneteknologi. Derved undgås en fremrykket udskiftning og overflødiggørelse af nuværende S‐tog. Desuden kan ombygningen billiggøres ved at udnytte en option i Signalprogrammet om udførelse af S‐ banesignaler i stedet for fjernbanesignaler på de pågældende strækninger. Dette vil kræve endelig beslutning senest i 2014 og dermed snarlig igangsætning af et målrettet videre undersøgelsesforløb. Hvis man ikke ønsker dette, kan man i stedet sigte efter ibrugtagning omkring 2030, hvor man snarere bør satse på en 2‐systemløsning med indsættelse af en ny type S‐tog, der kan håndtere begge tekniske systemer. Derved undgås en kostbar ombygning af baneanlæg. Anskaffelse af 2‐systemmateriel skal da ske i sammenhæng med en udskiftning af nuværende S‐tog i perioden 2026‐2036, hvilket formentlig kræver endelig beslutning omkring 2020. Begge muligheder har god samfundsøkonomi.

Young Australians' neighbourhood social capital
Creators: name: Chong, Sheau Tsuey
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Social capital is often used as a reference to create policy and interventions to improve social well-being of the community members. This paper focus on whether social cohesion and perceived neighbourhood safety make a difference to young people’s levels of neighbourhood social capital. Young Australians and permanent residents aged 16 to 25 (N=283) participated in this study through an online survey. The findings support previous literature, which found cohesive neighbours are more trusting than less cohesive neighbours. The results also indicate that the young people who perceived their neighbourhood as safe were relatively more trusting than those who perceived their neighbourhood as less safe. These suggest that creating neighbourhood ‘togetherness’ and preventions on crime promotes could promote more neighbourhood social capital.
title: A normative model for Bayesian combination of subjective probability estimates

description: Combining experts’ subjective probability estimates is a fundamental task with broad applicability in domains ranging from finance to public health. However, it is still an open question how to combine such estimates optimally. Since the beta distribution is a common choice for modeling uncertainty about probabilities, here we propose a family of normative Bayesian models for aggregating probability estimates based on beta distributions. We systematically derive and compare different variants, including hierarchical and non-hierarchical as well as asymmetric and symmetric beta fusion models. Using these models, we show how the beta calibration function naturally arises in this normative framework and how it is related to the widely used Linear-in-Log-Odds calibration function. For evaluation, we provide the new Knowledge Test Confidence data set consisting of subjective probability estimates of 85 forecasters on 180 queries. On this and another data set, we show that the hierarchical symmetric beta fusion model performs best of all beta fusion models and outperforms related Bayesian fusion models in terms of mean absolute error.

description: Small cell carcinoma of the ovary, hypercalcaemic type (SCCOHT) is a lethal and sometimes familial ovarian tumour of young women and children. We and others recently discovered that over 90% of SCCOHT harbour inactivating mutations in the chromatin remodelling gene SMARCA4 with concomitant loss of its encoded protein SMARCA4 (BRG1), one of two mutuallyexclusive ATPases of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex. To determine the specificity of SMARCA4 loss for SCCOHT, we examined the expression of SMARCA4 by immunohistochemistry in more than 3000 primary gynaecological tumours. Among ovarian tumours, it was only absent in clear cell carcinoma (15 of 360, 4%). In the uterus, it was absent in endometrial stromal sarcomas (4 of 52, 8%) and high-grade endometrioid carcinomas (2 of 338, 1%). Recent studies have shown that SMARCA2 (BRM), the other mutually exclusive ATPase of the SWI/SNF complex, is necessary for survival of tumour cells lacking SMARCA4. Therefore, we examined SMARCA2 expression and discovered that all SMARCA4-negative SCCOHTs also lacked SMARCA2 protein by IHC, including the SCCOHT cell lines BIN67 and SCCOHT1. Among ovarian tumours, the SMARCA4/SMARCA2 dual loss phenotype appears completely specific for SCCOHT. SMARCA2 loss was not due to mutation but rather from an absence of mRNA expression, which was restored by treatment with the histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A. Re-expression of SMARCA4 or SMARCA2 inhibited the growth of BIN67 and SCCOHT1 cell lines. Our results indicate that SMARCA4 loss, either alone or with SMARCA2, is highly sensitive and specific for SCCOHT, and that restoration of either SWI/SNF ATPase can inhibit the growth of SCCOHT cell lines.

description: Naturstyrelsen iværksatte i 2010 et udredningsprojekt, Erhvervsprojektet, som havde fokus på samspillet mellem erhvervslokalisering, tilgængelighed og transportbehov. Projektet bestod af to hoveddele: et serviceeftersyn af erhvervsområder og virksomhedslokalisering, hvor der var et særligt fokus på virksomhedernes behov og præferencer i forhold til lokalisering, og en analyse af erhvervslokaliseringens betydning for tilgængeligheden og virksomhedernes transportbehov, både for gods‐ og persontransport. Resultaterne af den anden del af erhvervsprojektet er et unikt nationalt overblik over sammenhænge mellem transportadfærd og lokalisering. Kortlægningen belyser, i hvilket omfang lokaliseringen af virksomheden har betydning for, hvilke transportmidler der vælges i persontransport, og hvor lange transporterne er. Ved at bruge lokaliseringen, tilgængeligheden og overordnet virksomhedstype som filter, er data fra hele landet anvendt i analysen. Resultaterne kan anvendes til at vurdere den trafikale og miljømæssige betydning af en optimal lokalisering af forskellige typer af virksomheder. Projektet giver derudover et landsdækkende overblik over byggemuligheder i erhvervsområder koblet til områdernes tilgængelighed i forhold til transport. Resultaterne viser, at den kommunale arealplanlægning, især for erhvervsområder, har en væsentlig indvirkning på transportomfang og transportmiddelvalg.

Year: 2011

description: This paper presents the notion of motility as a way of understanding individual attitude and behavior in relation to mobility. Motility provides an elaborate understanding of the premises for individual mobility, and opens up for a conceptual analysis of mobility management policies. The aim of this analysis is to specify how this policy area aims at delivering changes within the attitude and behavior of travelers. Matching the theoretical notion of motility with a general characterization of mobility management policies show, that these theoretical perspectives could be a useful inclusion in the further work on mobility management policies in Denmark.

description: Skal man have en større andel af en ungdomsårgang til at tage en ungdomsuddannelse, er det nødvendigt at se nærmere på alle de barrierer, der påvirker unges uddannelsesvalg og i sidste ende påvirker gennemførelsen af uddannelserne. Transportafstand er en af flere af disse barrierer. Dette paper sætter fokus på sammenhængen mellem transportafstand og gennemførelse af ungdomsuddannelser. Dette sker primært på baggrund af udtræk fra Transportvaneundersøgelsen (TU) kombineret med uddannelsesdata fra Danmarks Statistik. Analysen viser bl.a., at der er en vis sammenhæng mellem andelen af unge, der tager en ungdomsuddannelse og den gennemsnitlige transporttid: De kommuner, der har de laveste andele af en ungdomsårgang, der gennemfører en ungdomsuddannelse, er samtidig de kommuner, hvor de unge i gennemsnit har længst til deres uddannelse. Dette gør sig særligt gældende ift. erhvervsuddannelserne, hvor eleverne har længst til deres uddannelsesinstitutioner og størst frafald. Konkret er der gennemsnitligt næsten dobbelt så langt til erhvervsuddannelser som til gymnasier i de kommuner, der har de laveste gennemførselsprocenter. Disse resultater har relevans for såvel lokaliseringen af udbuddet af uddannelserne som tilrettelæggelsen af den kollektive trafik til ungdomsuddannelser.

Transmission augmentation in an oligopoly electricity market: part I (mathematical formulation)
Creators: name: Hesamzadeh, M. R.
name: Hosseinzadeh, N.
name: Wolfs, P. J.
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This paper proposes a Three-Stage Model for transmission augmentation in restructured electricity markets. The mathematical formulation of the model is eveloped based on the game theory. Transmission Network Service Provider, TNSP, Generating Companies, GenCos, and Market Management Company, MMC, are placed in different stages of the model. These stages are linked to each other using the Leader-followers game and the concept of Nash equilibriums. An increase in transmission capacity can have two benefits for the electricity market; firstly, efficiency benefit in terms of improving the social welfare of the electricity industry, and, secondly, competition benefit which leads to increasing competition among generating companies. The introduced Three-Stage Model can capture both benefits of transmission projects in electricity markets. An effective numerical method is designed for solving the developed Three-Stage Model. A modified IEEE 14 example system is employed to show the effectiveness of the methodology. This paper has been organized in two parts. First part deals with the mathematical formulation of the algorithm and second part deals with the numerical studies. What follows is the first part of the paper.

Improving yields by integrating a diversity of shrubs or trees into crop fields
Creators: name: Beck, Lilian

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: Agroforestry
subject: Sahel
subject: Trees

description: This poster is available for download and printing, intended for use in workshops with farmers to facilitate the reflections and exchange of experiences related to the advantages of integrating trees into crop fields.

The poster illustrates key reasons why integrating trees and shrubs with cereal crops in Sahelian landscapes is a promising approach:

Farmers in the Sahel region are increasingly challenged by unpredictable rainfall, prolonged drought, and intensified soil degradation. These issues are leading to lower yields of important food crops, such as millet and sorghum.

The Sustain Sahel project has shown that combining sorghum and millet with local shrubs called Guiera and Piliostigma, as well as with a local tree called Faidherbia Albida in fields, has beneficial effects. This finding is supported by several studies. Trees and shrubs infiltrate rainwater underground, storing it and making it available to crops during dry periods. They also provide habitat for numerous soil organisms, such as earthworms, which improve soil structure and facilitate crop growth. Pruning trees and shrubs and depositing their leaves on the field as mulch provides food for beneficial soil organisms. In turn, these organisms provide essential nutrients to crops and support their healthy growth.

These beneficial effects become even more critical when faced with the effects of climate change, such as drought. For example, the Faidherbia albida tree, as shown in one of our studies, has demonstrated its ability to buffer rainfall shortages in the Sahel region (Dauphin-Clermont et al., 2023).

On the other hand, if there are very few trees and shrubs in a field, water infiltration during the rains will be low, and evaporation will be rapid. Moreover, the absence of root systems to hold the soil in place allows the wind to blow the subsoil away, leading to erosion. Finally, the soil lacks organic matter and microorganisms. This combination of factors will result in low crop yields and ongoing soil degradation.

description: Despite concerted international efforts, mortality from neonatal infections remains unacceptably high in some areas of the world, particularly for premature infants. Recent developments in flow cytometry and next-generation sequencing technologies have led to major discoveries over the past few years, providing a more integrated understanding of the developing human immune system in the context of its microbial environment. We review these recent findings, focusing on how in human newborns incomplete maturation of the immune system before a full term of gestation impacts on their vulnerability to infection. We also discuss some of the clinical implications of this research in guiding the design of more-accurate age-adapted diagnostic and preventive strategies for neonatal sepsis.

Product evaluation in a social marketing and community development context: a case study, partnerships, proof and practice
Creators: name: Hill, Anne

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: We provide a case study of product evaluation for social marketing undertaken specifically within a 'community development' context. Starting Points is a highly differentiated not-for profit development program targeting parents/caregivers of 0-4 year olds. The service 'product' evaluated is essentially the enhancement of 'parental confidence' achieved through participation in community based programs which are both marketed and delivered by peer facilitators. The paper locates such evaluation within the program evaluation and marketing audit literatures, describes the research design, and reports preliminary empirical results. These suggest the Starting Points product is perceived by participant parents and their partners as resulting in significant increases in parental confidence, sustained well past the immediate post participation period. These results provide one critical empirical element of a thorough product evaluation, itself a step towards a thorough-going social marketing auditing process applicable within a community development context.

description: A model for hematopoiesis is presented that explicitly includes the erythrocyte, granulocyte, and thrombocyte lineages and their common precursors. A small number of stem cells proliferate and differentiate through different compartments to produce the vast number of blood cells needed every day. Growth factors regulate the proliferation of cells dependent on the current demand. We provide a steady state analysis of the model and rough parameter estimates. Furthermore, we extend the model to include mutations that alter the replicative capacity of cells and introduce differentiation blocks. With these mutations the model develops signs of acute myeloid leukemia.

description: De norske trafikmyndigheder ønsker at fremme cykeltrafikken i norske byer. En afgørende forudsætning for at opnå en større cykelandel er, at infrastrukturen tilrettelægges bedre for cykling. Udformningen af bykryds udgør en stor udfordring, idet det er her, at cyklisterne har størst ulykkesrisiko, utryghedsfølelse og forsinkelser. Formålet med dette paper har været at vurdere effekten af krydstiltag for cyklister på cyklisternes sikkerhed, tryghedsfølelse, fremkommelighed, adfærd og holdninger. I paperet er der fokuseret på opmærkningstiltagene: normalt opmærket cykelbane, farvet opmærkning, tilbagetrukket stopstreg, cykelboks, centralt opmærket cykelbane, opmærket cykelbane i højre side og opmærket cykelbane i venstre side. Centralt opmærket cykelbane har fået særlig opmærksomhed i paperet. Studiet omfatter litteraturstudie af anbefalinger i 40 cykelhåndbøger og vejnormaler fra 10 lande samt erfaringer og effekter beskrevet/undersøgt i 65 studier fra syv lande. Der er foretaget metaanalyse af de studier, som omfatter ulykkesevaluering, og der er udviklet en ny metode til vurdering af tiltagenes effekt på cyklisternes tryghed. Endelig er der foretaget ulykkesanalyse, observations- og konfliktstudie samt stopinterview i seks analysekryds i Oslo, som har eller skal have centralt opmærket cykelbane. Konklusionen af undersøgelserne er, at opmærkningstiltag i kryds for cyklister i form af forskellige farver og striber er billige tiltag, som generelt kan medvirke til at forbedre cyklisternes sikkerhed, tryghed, fremkommelighed og adfærd. Tiltagene kan derfor med fordel bruges i flere byer som en del af en samlet satsning for at få flere til at cykle. For at opnå den fulde effekt af opmærkningstiltagene er det afgørende, at tiltagene løbende vedligeholdes, da tiltagene i modsat fald vil miste sin oprindelige gode effekt. Endelig konkluderes det, at det for flere af tiltagene mangler gode empiriske effektstudier, og det anbefales derfor, at der fortages flere og bedre evalueringer af især opmærket cykelbane i højre og venstre side.

description: This report proposes a radical revision of the scientific paradigm, asserting the primacy of information over matter, energy, and time. We proceed from the thesis that reality fundamentally consists not of objects, but of distinctions that manifest through informational structures and are fixed in consciousness.

The work demonstrates the limitations of existing scientific methodology based on locality, materialism, and neutrality of observation, and proposes a new methodology of distinction, where the subject is recognized as an ontologically primary element of scientific cognition. The concept of the muktashif—a new type of researcher capable of distinguishing tensions in the information field—is introduced, along with the spinor as a mathematical instrument for formalizing the process of distinction.

The practical application of the new paradigm is an information-fractal model for predicting seismic activity, based not on linear causality but on recognizing nonlocal patterns. We also present an organizational structure for implementing this approach in the form of a fractal network of distinguishing nodes.

This report aims not only to propose a new scientific model but to initiate an ontological transformation of our understanding of reality, returning meaning and the subject to the center of scientific cognition.

description: De siste årene har det skjedd store endringer i terminalstrukturen i Sør-Rogaland, særling i og rundt Stavanger. Ganddal jernbaneterminal ble åpnet i årsskifte 2007/2008 og Risavika havn ble utbygd til en betydelig havn på Vestlandet. I tillegg fins det andre terminaler i området, som spiller en viktig rolle innen transportsektoren. Dette prosjektet har samlet en rekke private og offentlige aktører som ønsker å øke kunnskapen om godstransport, kartlegge den og dermed skape et bedre grunnlag for framtidige beslutninger. Resultatet skal være et hjelpemiddel for private og offentlige aktører for å legge forholdene best mulig til rette for næringslivets transporter, innenfor en effektiv, miljøvennlig og trafikksikker ramme i Sør-Rogaland. Eksempel på data som samles inn i forbindelse med prosjektet er strukturert informasjon fra de største logistikkaktørene i regionen, samt intervju av lastebilsjåfører som henter og leverer gods til/fra de største havnene og jernbaneterminalen i området. I tillegg gjennomføres det intervju av lastebilsjåfører som passerer to vegpunkt inn og ut av Sør-Rogaland, ved E39 Krossmoen i sør og på ferjesambandet Mortavika- Arsvågen i nord. Det er resultater fra den første delen av denne undersøkelsen som presenteres i dette paperet.

description: Background Access to health care is a crucial determinant of health. Yet, even within settings that purport to provide universal health coverage (UHC), sex workers’ experiences reveal systematic, institutionally ingrained barriers to appropriate quality health care. The aim of this study was to assess prevalence and correlates of institutional barriers to care among sex workers in a setting with UHC. Methods Data was drawn from an ongoing community-based, prospective cohort of women sex workers in Vancouver, Canada (An Evaluation of Sex Workers’ Health Access). Multivariable logistic regression analyses, using generalized estimating equations (GEE), were employed to longitudinally investigate correlates of institutional barriers to care over a 44-month follow-up period (January 2010-August 2013). Results In total, 723 sex workers were included, contributing to 2506 observations. Over the study period, 509 (70.4%) women reported one or more institutional barriers to care. The most commonly reported institutional barriers to care were long wait times (54.6%), limited hours of operation (36.5%), and perceived disrespect by health care providers (26.1%). In multivariable GEE analyses, recent partner- (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.46, % 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 1.10–1.94), workplace- (AOR = 1.31, 95% CI 1.05–1.63), and community-level violence (AOR = 1.41, 95% CI 1.04–1.92), as well as other markers of vulnerability, such as self-identification as a gender/sexual minority (AOR = 1.32, 95% CI 1.03–1.69), a mental illness diagnosis (AOR = 1.66, 95% CI 1.34–2.06), and lack of provincial health insurance card (AOR = 3.47, 95% CI 1.59–7.57) emerged as independent correlates of institutional barriers to health services. Discussion Despite Canada’s UHC, women sex workers in Vancouver face high prevalence of institutional barriers to care, with highest burden among most marginalized women. These findings underscore the need to explore new models of care, alongside broader policy changes to fulfill sex workers’ health and human rights.
Creation of a Framework for Railway Timetable Optimization Criteria

description: During the last years, much effort has been put into developing mathematical models for timetable creation. All models need an objective function which describes criteria used to optimize and evaluate a timetable. In an attempt to find a Danish list of prioritized railway timetable evaluation criteria, this paper presents the five most important evaluation criteria from the 5 most important Danish railway timetable stakeholders. The criteria are grouped according to overall subjects and a first overview of the prioritization is given. From the criteria descriptions a series of indicators are deduced. This forms the basis for a decision process for finding a common accepted list of prioritized timetable evaluation criteria. This decision process will be accomplished on one or two decision making workshops. A reduction from 13 stated potential timetable evaluation criteria to between 4 and 6 is needed. To make the decision making process as accessible and transparent to the stakeholders as possible the SMARTER technique will be applied. A short description of the technique is given. The deduced indicators for each remaining criterion must also be ranked. Since some of the indicators are not easily quantifiable the “Direct Ranking” methodology will be used for this step in the process. The methodology is briefly described. Hereby the roadmap for a first common Danish list of prioritized railway timetable evaluation criteria is given.

Planning With Timetable Supplements in Railway Timetables
Creators: name: Schittenhelm, Bernd
Publisher: name: Proceedings from the Annual Transport Conference at Aalborg University
Year: 2011

description: The use of time supplements in railway timetables is a trade of between attractive travel times and punctuality levels. Punctuality is a key performance indicator for timetables and time supplements are therefore applied in any timetable. Time supplements can be found as running time supplements, dwell time supplements and buffer times between trains. These are described in the paper. Through analyzing the present valid timetable it is shown that the present size of running time supplements is approximately 50% bigger as recommended by the UIC. Unreliable input data for the timetabling process can be a valid reason for unnecessary high time supplement levels in the timetable. Making the best use of the applied running time supplement has resulted in several application strategies. Several are presented in the paper. A Danish success story is the use of condensation and compensation zones on the Copenhagen suburban railway network. This is inspired by the approach used in the Swiss Bahn2000 timetable for station hubs. A political demand for future travel times not higher than or below one hour between the cities of Copenhagen and Odense leads to an investigation of 3 possible scenarios: Applying the existing planning rules in regards to time supplements, using the recommendations from the UIC or making a compromise by adapting the existing rules to fulfill the political demands. It is shown that the existing planning rules cannot provide the necessary reduction in travel time. Critical low levels of running time supplements are the result when using UIC recommendations. A compromise can be the solution. This demands a halving of the presently applied running time supplements and therefore also a new approach to timetabling and railway operation in Denmark.
