More about the book
The term mobility has different meanings in the following science disciplines. In economics, mobility is the ability of an individual or a group to improve their eco-nomic status in relation to income and wealth within their lifetime or between gen-erations. In information systems and computer science, mobility is used for the concept of mobile computing, in which a computer is transported by a person dur-ing normal use. Logistics creates by the design of logistics networks the infrastruc-ture for the mobility of people and goods. Electric mobility is one of today’s solu-tions from an engineering perspective to reduce the need of energy resources and environmental impact. Moreover, for urban planning, mobility is the crunch ques-tion about how to optimise the different needs for mobility and how to link differ-ent transportation systems. In this publication we collected the ideas of practitioners, researchers, and gov-ernment officials regarding the different modes of mobility in a globalised world, focusing on both domestic and international issues.
