Abstract
The field of Intelligent Transportation Systems, now well established in standards, trade associations, and academia, represent 30 years of computational impact on the supply - side.Can it also revolutionize demand. The highway pavement is sensed every 30 seconds every quarter mile, but the California Travel Household survey, the bulwark of demand sensing, operates once every 10 years with 10, 000 people– 1 person every 40 California square km.While 3000 lights are actuated at scale with feedback every minute in Los Angeles, the actuators of demand like prices or incentives for parking and roads, adjust once in years through planning and policy. Through the lens of our studies with travelers in the mobile cloud, we show how the rising ubiquity of computation is revolutionizing the sensors and actuators of demand, while opening a new computational paradigm for social science.
