The early days of transportation science research.
Happy 50th anniversary Transportation Science. To celebrate, the editorial board put together a special issue of 12 classic papers published in Transportation Science over the past 50 years. I’ve pasted the list below – I believe all the articles can be downloaded without a subscription for a limited time. Head here to see the full list.
This is an excellent collection of papers – I’m even covering “A Maximum Expected Covering Location Model: Formulation, Properties and Heuristic Solution” by Mark Daskin in my course on public sector OR this semester.
