RKB: A Knowledge base to support research documentation, data, GIS, spatial data and communications for a major rail freight project. (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wigan, M., Kukla, R., Benjamins, M., & Grashoff, P. (2007, October). RKB: A Knowledge base to support research documentation, data, GIS, spatial data and communications for a major rail freight project. Presented at European transport conference 2007

The paper places data and document access, use and exploration systems in the context of the Data Observatories movement, as well as the document repository systems now becoming mandated for universities. It will show how taking these developments in...

The ReOrient knowledge base. (2007)
Other
Wigan, M., & Kukla, R. (2007). The ReOrient knowledge base

REORIENT will create a Knowledge Base, which will serve as a repository of information, data and outputs from its analytical work and will support the Commission in formulating the terms of reference for the Integrated Project. The Knowledge Base wil... Read More about The ReOrient knowledge base..

A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Kukla, R., Willis, A., Armitage, A., Binnie, D., & Lei, L. (2003, October). A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. Presented at Traffic and Granular Flow '03

We provide a comparison of the relative merits of video and infrared based methods for collecting pedestrian movements from the real world and also from experimental environments. We describe the underlying technological basis of both methods and the... Read More about A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements..

Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. (2004)
Journal Article
Willis, A., Gjersoe, N., Havard, C., Kerridge, J., & Kukla, R. (2004). Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. Environment and planning. B, Planning & design, 31(6), 805-828. https://doi.org/10.1068/b3060

Despite a burgeoning research effort directed at the design and modelling of effective urban spaces for pedestrians, remarkably little is known about how pedestrians actually negotiate urban spaces. This paper reports the results of a video-based obs... Read More about Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments..

PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow. (2001)
Journal Article
Kukla, R., Kerridge, J., Willis, A., & Hine, J. (2001). PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow. Transportation research record, 1774, 11-17. https://doi.org/10.3141/1774-02

The paper discusses the need for an autonomous agent approach for the modeling of pedestrians in urban
environments and places PEDFLOW in the context of existing models. PEDFLOW is a microscopic model
of pedestrians’ movement, where each pedestrian... Read More about PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow..
