6:07
Buses operating in dedicated transit tunnels are very rare. One city where this used to be done was Seattle, Washington State, USA.
Originally opening in September 1990, and wholly located within the city's 'free travel' zone the 1 & 1/3rd mile (2.1km) tunnels were served by a fleet of Italian Breda duobuses, with some services providing a direct link to the city's airport.
It featured 5 stations which opened on Mondays - Saturdays only. At the time of construction rail tracks were also installed for a future light rail service. Unfortunately despite this commendable forward thinking it was subsequently decided that part of the light rail line will follow a different alignment than the existing tunnels, so on 24th September 2005 the bus subway was closed for two year period of rebuilding.
Most of the duobuses were actually withdrawn well in advance of the closure (with many being converted to pure trolleybuses for use on surface routes) and - amazingly - replaced with diseasal powered buses. (diseasal = disease diesel)
In April 2005 local users were reporting on Internet discussion groups that the tunnels were often somewhat smelly from (what thinking people know to be) the poisonous diesel engine exhaust fumes.
Whilst it is true that the buses are diesel electric hybrids they still needed to use the fossil fuel traction package whilst underground, although this was in a special 'hush' mode which means that the only operate between stations and at much reduced power.
Apparently the choice of fossil fuel buses was influenced by the transport operators' belief that it is not possible to mix overhead wire powered light rail and electric trolleybuses / duo-buses in an underground tunnel system - even though Essen proved otherwise!
In Seattle the buses were driver steered, it might be assumed that for safety's sake "some" sort of guidance system would have been needed - if only to reduce the chance of a bus accidentally hitting the tunnel wall - especially within the portion of the bus subway which featured narrow London Underground 'tube-like' tunnels (as seen here), but this was not the situation.
This video compilation was filmed in May 1993. The sequences only follow a cursory order and because of faulty camcorder lens optics (which was only discovered once back home) the images are not as sharp as they should have been. Which is a shame.
------------------------------
The tunnel reopened on 24th September 2007, although again for hybrid diseasal buses only. タグ:bustunnelmetrobuswaybrt 投稿日: February 25, 2007, 11:24 am 閲覧数: 152941 投票: 4.40(５点満点) 136 人の平均

seattle conference on scalability: scaling google maps from big screen do...

Google Tech Talks
June 14, 2008
ABSTRACT
Jerry will talk about scaling Google Maps from the desktop down to mobile phones where usage is
growing rapidly and will someday surpass desktop usage. He will discuss the approaches used in adapt-
ing the application to work in a low bandwidth, high latency environment with a wide variety of net-
works and devices. Mobile data rates currently range from 100 Kbps to 2 Mbps but more significantly,
HTTP network request latency is measured in seconds. Mobile phone screens are very small compared
to laptops, so we can't just shrink down the view. User input is often limited to 12-key keypads plus two
soft keys, sometimes augmented with an alpha keyboard and/or a touch screen.
The key adaptation was reimplementing the AJAX web site as a client-server application, ported to
several mobile platforms. We redesigned the user interface for the narrow UI bottleneck and added cel-
lular-based location detection so people don't have to type an address just to get the map open to the
right page. An application-specific network protocol and tile cache help with the high latency network
by multiplexing requests together into fewer round trips. A special "mobile" tile set helps with latency
and bandwidth by downloading smaller map tiles while offering more frequent road labels to suit tiny
screens. Compression techniques such as a compact-header JPEG format for satellite images also help.
The server is stateless so scaling up capacity is mostly handled by adding more servers.
People are unaccustomed to downloading applications to their phones, and the phones have download
limits, so it's important to keep the download package small. We also get the application preinstalled on
some phones.

Google Tech Talks
June 14, 2008
ABSTRACT
Increasingly, R users have access to multiprocessor machines or multiple-core CPUs. However, base R does not natively support parallel processing; this can force R users to wait while computationally intensive work is done on a single processor or core and other processors or cores lie idle. NetWorkSpaces for R (NWS-R) is a Python-based tuple coordination system that is portable across virtually all popular computing platforms. NWS-R includes a web interface that displays the workspaces and their contents; this is helpful when debugging or developing a program, or monitoring the progress of an application. NWS-R is easy to learn, accessible from many development environments, and deployable on ad hoc collections of spare CPUs. The server and client for NWS-R are available at SourceForge (nws-r.sourceforge.net); the client is also available at CRAN (cran.r-project.org/web/packages/nws/). We will present NetWorkSpaces for R and demonstrate the web interface.
While we are using R as the primary example for our NetWorkSpaces product, we will also present interfaces to other languages such as python and matlab.
