Modeling public transit route choice behaviour by Zhou, Yao Hui.

“…It was subsequently concluded that morning commuters on the Singapore MRT East West Line from the western region were experiencing overcrowding on their journeys, but the majority of them did not adapt their route or departure time choice as a result of the unpleasant experience in the crowd, because their comfort loss did not easily overcome the concerns over other prevailing factors, like the early arrival schedule cost. …”

Multi-description multipath video streaming in wireless ad hoc networks by Xu, Yuanyuan., Zhu, Ce.

“…A heuristic solution of low complexity is developed for the interference-aware multipath routing, by introducing a path metric taking into account intra-flow interference, inter-flow interference, link bandwidth and link “up” probability. The second problem touches on unbalanced-path based joint MD video coding and packet allocation for multiple paths of varying bandwidth and loss probabilities. …”
