COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF MAY 4,1995 PSA#1339GLOBAL INTERMODALISM AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SYMPOSIUM The National
Aviation and Transportation Center in participation with the FAA will
be holding its Fourth Annual Symposium on July 24-27, 1995. Global
Intermodalism and Economic Development, the theme for this year's
Symposium, deals with the positioning of integrated transportation
systems as a tool to enhance both economic development and
international competitiveness. Constrained movement of people, goods,
services and information has a deleterious effect on mobility and
efficiency, which in turn impairs productivity and economic growth.
Central to economic optimization is a comprehensive and integrated
transportation system involving land, air, and sea. The Fourth Annual
Symposium will have a series of outstanding keynote speakers from
business, government and industry. These speakers will establish the
overview in several subject areas related to transportation. Five
workshops will address specific themes including: Human Factors,
Technology Transfer, Simulation and Multimedia, International
Partnerships, and Privatization. Workshop sessions will consist of a
series of presentations by experts in their field, followed by
questions and answers moderated by a Session Chair. Transportation
related exhibitions representing business and government will be on
display. Intelligent transportation systems as well simulation,
visualization and multi-media technologies will be included in the
state-of-the-art applications to transportation. The five continuing
education courses offered the final two days of the Symposium (July
26-27, 1995) will deal with the following subjects: Air Quality
Transportation Requirements Under the Clean Air Act and Their
Applications to Business, Intermodalism and Transportation Total
Quality Management (TTQM), Human Factors in Transportation for
Engineers and Managers, Aromacology and the Built Environment,
Traditional Neighborhood Development: TND. The proceedings of the
conference will be published for all those attending. For further
