About this title

Synopsis

This collection explores the opportunities for and possible implications of coordination between two of the major pieces of emerging infrastructure in the United States: Intelligent Transportation Systems (I.T.S.) and the National Information Infrastructure (NII). Based on a recent workshop that was sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transportation, M.I.T., and Harvard, Converging Infrastructures frames the programmatic, organizational, and technical issues involved.
