Co-creating News Experiences and Reconstructing Context |
Public transportation has always been a crucial component of many metropolitan cities around the world. We’ve observed that a great amount of people around us tend to avoid taking MARTA, with one of the most common reasons being personal safety concerns. The goal of this project is to 1) Understand what factors affect riders’ perceived safety on MARTA rail system and 2) Devise a solution to increase perceived safety on MARTA rail system. Based on our research, we created a crowdsourcing prototype that helps users to report incidents and identify the population density of the incoming trains. |
This project studies ways to address counterfeiting through supply network designs and policies. Of particular interest is how such designs and policies may produce unintended effects. A large-scale interactive simulation model has been developed as a test-bed for various designs and policies to demonstrate their effect and their interactions. The policy-maker can execute the model with his or her policy and design choices, and the visual interface will show the results. |
