  1. REGIONAL STRATEGIES/ ITS RESEARCH THE MIT/MUST COLLABORATION Joseph M. Sussman JR East Professor Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering and Engineering Systems Massachusetts Institute of Technology March 26, 2003

  2. CLIOS Complex Large-scale Integrated Open Systems

  3. NESTED COMPLEXITY

  4. NESTED COMPLEXITY AND LAYERING • Visualize the interactions: • policy sphere of institutional, organizational, political and social actors • physical layers, representing technological, natural and economic subsystems • Clarify the set of actual decisionmakers that influence the development of the system • Example: colectivo drivers versus route associations

  5. WHAT IS A COMPLEX POLICY ANALYSIS? Aspects of complex policy analysis 1. CLIOS Representation • Nested Complexity • CLIOS Representation (physical system) • CLIOS Representation (institutional system) 2. Integrated Assessment • Interdisciplinary approach to understanding system behavior • Consideration of multiple, simultaneous policy options • Formulating results of value to decisionmaking • Focus on process for building consensus 3. Scenarios • Consideration of future uncertainties • Policy options that are robust across multiple futures • Flexible strategies • Preparing decisionmakers for recognizing alternative futures 4. Regional Architecture • Institutional relationships • Information flows

  6. RELATED META-CONCEPTS

  7. ITS AS AN INTEGRATING THEME

  8. Figure 1. Proposed ITS Deployment Framework -- Sandi Lin

  9. ITS TECHNOLOGIES IN KUALA LUMPUR • ETC (Electronic Toll Collection System) • Traffic Information System On Expressways/ Highways • Smart Traffic Control • Traffic Information System • Bus Information Kiosks • Red Light Enforcement • Automatic Vehicle Location • Electronic Fare Payment • Plus more now and planned -- Sandi Lin

  10. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE ITS RESEARCH • Creation of a national-level ITS strategic office • Creation of a national ITS architecture • Exploration of alternative forms of ITS public/private partnerships • Research into legal issues -- Sandi Lin

  11. THE MALAYSIA MIT REGION STRATEGIES/ITS TEAMMarch 26, 2003 Team Director: Joseph M. Sussman, JR East Professor, Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering and Engineering Systems

  12. SOME INTEGRATING THEMES • Dealing with fragmentation (ETC, public transportation, …) • Institutional Map: Understanding how organizations fit together to structure investment, policy and operations • Public-Private Partnerships as a key strategy • Sustainability • Flexibility in long-term planning • Vision of the future for Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia and how it relates to its transportation system • Malaysia’s role internationally • Malaysia’s industry and economic plan • Malaysia’s land use
