Cost-efficient fiber connection topology design for metropolitan area WDM networks by Guan, Kyle C., Chan, Vincent W. S.

“…In this paper, we provide some analytical insights into physical architectures that can serve as benchmarks for designing a cost-efficient WDM metropolitan area network (MAN). For uniform all-to-all traffic and regular topologies with nodal symmetry, we identify a class of regular graphs--Generalized Moore Graphs--that have several attractive properties by formulating a first-order cost model and characterizing the tradeoff between fiber and switching resources. …”

Emergence of Secondary Airports and Dynamics of Regional Airport Systems in the United States by Bonnefoy, Philippe A, Hansman, R. John

“…With the growing demand for air transportation and limited capacity at major airports, there is a need to increase the capacity of airport systems at the metropolitan area level. The increased use of secondary airports has been and is expected to be one of the key mechanisms by which future demand is met in congested metropolitan areas. …”

Determination of particulate lead using aerosol mass spectrometry: MILAGRO/MCMA-2006 observations by Salcedo, D., Onasch, T. B., Aiken, A. C., Williams, L. R., de Foy, B., Cubison, M. J., Worsnop, D. R., Molina, Luisa Tan, Jimenez, J. L.

“…We report the first measurements of particulate lead (Pb) from Aerodyne Aerosol Mass Spectrometers, which were deployed in and around Mexico City during the Megacity Initiative: Local and Global Research Observations (MILAGRO)/Mexico City Metropolitan Area 2006 (MCMA-2006) field campaigns. The high resolution mass spectrometer of one of the AMS instruments (HR-AMS) and the measured isotopic ratios unequivocally prove the detection of Pb in ambient particles. …”

Does urban living influence baby boomers’ travel behavior? by Lee, Jae Seung, Park, Sungjin, Zegras, Pericles C, Ben-Joseph, Eran

“…We compare the travel behavior of urban versus suburban baby boomers in the Boston metropolitan area. Using propensity score matching to attempt to control for self-selection and data from two surveys implemented in 2008 and 2010, we find that the urban boomers tend to be less automobile-dependent than suburban baby boomers. …”
