The Left Lane 2

This is a book written to remind today's drivers of how careless we have become while driving our vehicles and the pitfalls many of us have fallen into. Lack of courtesy, basic driving knowledge, and common sense are some of the issues that contribute to the frustrations of driving on the road today. The author has used interesting personal examples, wit and humor to illustrate some of the traits we exhibit, both good and bad, while driving a vehicle. He then makes bold recommendations on how to apply common sense in making our driving experiences safer, more efficient and more fun. Numerous pictures and illustrations help the reader to visualize scenes from their own driving experiences to which they can relate. Cool Tips for Better Driving and a fictitious The Perfect Drive round out the excellent reading. �A must read for all drivers from 16 to 96 years old.�

Driving is a fact of life. We are all spending more and more time on the road, and traffic is an issue we face everyday. This book will make you think about it in a whole new light. We have always had a passion for cars and driving. Now Traffic offers us an exceptionally rich understanding of that passion. Vanderbilt explains why traffic jams form, outlines the unintended consequences of our attempts to engineer safety and even identifies the most common mistakes drivers make in parking lots. Based on exhaustive research and interviews with driving experts and traffic officials around the globe, Traffic gets under the hood of the quotidian activity of driving to uncover the surprisingly complex web of physical, psychological and technical factors that explain how traffic works.

The core of ths book presents a theory developed by the author to combine the recent insight into empirical data with mathematical models in freeway traffic research based on dynamical non-linear processes.

Professor Richard S. Michalski passed away on September 20, 2007. Once we learned about his untimely death we immediately realized that we would no longer have with us a truly exceptional scholar and researcher who for several decades had been inf- encing the work of numerous scientists all over the world - not only in his area of exp- tise, notably machine learning, but also in the broadly understood areas of data analysis, data mining, knowledge discovery and many others. In fact, his influence was even much broader due to his creative vision, integrity, scientific excellence and excepti- ally wide intellectual horizons which extended to history, political science and arts. Professor Michalski’s death was a particularly deep loss to the whole Polish sci- tific community and the Polish Academy of Sciences in particular. After graduation, he began his research career at the Institute of Automatic Control, Polish Academy of Science in Warsaw. In 1970 he left his native country and hold various prestigious positions at top US universities. His research gained impetus and he soon established himself as a world authority in his areas of interest – notably, he was widely cons- ered a father of machine learning.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 4th KES International Symposium on Agent and Multi-Agent Systems, KES-AMSTA 2010, held in June 2010 in Gdynia, Poland. The discussed field is concerned with the development and analysis of AI-based problem-solving and control architectures for both single-agent and multiple-agent systems. Only 83 papers were selected for publication in both volumes which focus on topics such as: Multi-Agent Systems Design and Implementation, Negotiations and Social Issues, Web Services and Semantic Web, Cooperation, Coordination and Teamwork, Agent-Based Modeling, Simulation and Decision Making, Multi-Agent Applications, Management and e-Business, Mobile Agents and Robots, and Machine Learning.
