1. MAINTAIN ITS EVALUATION WEBSITE
Task Order 4101
Joy Dahlgren, PATH Headquarters
joy@uclink.berkeley.edu, http://www.path.berkeley.edu/PATH/General/Staff/jdahlgren.html
This project will continue to maintain the ITS Evaluation website and continually update the website with new projects and publications. New ITS user services will be added that are identified in the ITS architecture. The benefit/cost framework will be added to the website and have links to other benefit/cost websites.
2. EVALUATION METHODS TO MEASURING THE VALUE OF ITS SERVICES AND BENEFITS FROM IMPLEMENTATION
Task Order 4119
David Gillen, Univeristy of California, Berkeley
dgillen@euler.berkeley.edu
This project will examine the expected benefits and cost of different ITS applications that focus on traffic operations. The purpose of this research is to provide Caltrans with a measure of the expected net benefits with the application of some or all ITS projects to part of the California highway system.

FREEWAY PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT SYSTEM,
PEMS V. 3
Task Order 4123
Pravin Variaya, University
of California, Berkeley
varaiya@eecs.berkeley.edu, www.path.berkeley.edu/~varaiya
http://pems.eecs.berkeley.edu/Public/index.phtml
This is an experimental project conducted by
the EECS Department at the University of California, at Berkeley, with the
cooperation of California Department of Transportation. The intent of this
project is to collect historical and real-time freeway data from freeways in the
State of California in order to compute freeway performance measures. We also
provide a wide variety of tools for transportation researchers to examine
historical loop detector data. Finally, we also provide tools to compare the
real-time freeway performance with historical trends. In order to use the
Freeway Performance Measurement Site, you must apply for an account. Registering
is easy and only requires some information and a valid email account. Your
account can usually be approved within one or two working days.

TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER AND THE PATH PROJECT
MOU 3016
Linda Howe, University of California, Berkeley
lhowe@kinglet.Berkeley.EDU,
www.its.berkeley.edu/techtransfer/techtransfer.html
The
overall purposes of the project are to: 1) Facilitate and speed the process of
moving PATH research results to field application 2) Enhance
"matching" of existing practice "problems" with available
solutions developed by PATH researchers 3) Support feedback from users of ATMIS
products back to PATH researchers to assist with research problem
identification.
5. INSTITUTIONAL INITIATIVES: INTERDISCIPLINARY INVESTIGATION IN SUPPORT OF AN ITS-BASED TRAVELER INFORMATION SYSTEM
MOU 3019
Tom Horan, Claremont Graduate School
tom.horan@cgu.edu, http://www.cgu.edu/
This project will look at past
government capital innovation programs similar to ITS systems, by survey of
relevant past government innovation programs — both in the transportation
realm and beyond — and show how
and why they worked.
