RESEARCH

We currently have 3 research initiatives:

• Reynes Research Reports (R3)
• Peer-to-Peer knowledge exchange Networks(P2PKEN)
• Wiligence

These are explained as follows

Named after our founders home town in  France. A series of research reports addressing the art and practice of various hot topics in smart mobility. In cooperation with subject matter experts from around the world, best practices and emerging technologies will be identified and defined. Using a unique four step development approach, the experts will explore, discuss, and capture current best practices and trends from planning to operations, associated with emerging technologies worldwide, the four step process is outlined as follows:

Step one setting the scene

A virtual round table using webinar technologies is used to convene a small group of subject matter experts.  In the course of the meeting the background is explained with issues and aspects to be addressed in the report described and defined. The video on the left provides additional information on the virtual round table

Step two: defining the report

The small group of subject matter experts is reconvened to develop a detailed outline for the report. Mind mapping tools are used to support collaboration in the creation of detailed outline.

Step three: developing and reviewing the report

A small writing team of two or three people develop the report based on the outline created by the subject matter experts. The report is then reviewed by the subject matter experts and finalized by the writing team.

Step four: rolling at the report

The report is published online and presented at appropriate international conferences.

Wiligence is a groundbreaking initiative from the Smart Mobility Center, offering a comprehensive toolbox to empower decision-makers in the realm of smart mobility. This revolutionary platform leverages the principles of diligence, wisdom, and intelligence to transform the way transportation planning and deployment are approached.

At the heart of Wiligence lies a suite of online tools designed to guide users through crucial processes like benefit-cost analysis, conceptual design, and life cycle cost-benefit assessments. By seamlessly integrating Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT), Wiligence allows for the incorporation of stakeholder preferences, ensuring that every decision is tailored to the unique needs of the community. Wiligence is under development and a prototype will be used as part of the delivery of our professional development courses.

Currently the Minimum Viable Product is in association with Western University
