This document outlines the details of a transportation planning course including the course description, objectives, outcomes, prerequisites, grading, textbook, and tentative course outline. The course will teach students basic techniques for modeling, planning, and designing transportation systems including topics like the four-step travel forecasting model, shortest path algorithms, trip generation models, gravity models for trip distribution, and discrete choice models for mode choice. Assignments will include homework, labs, and exams. The goal is for students to learn fundamental skills in transportation planning and apply them to analytical problems and case studies.
Poverty can be defined as the lack of basic human needs like food, shelter, and clothing. It can be understood as either an absolute lack of resources or as relative deprivation compared to others in one's community. There are various ways to measure poverty, including the headcount ratio, poverty gap index, and squared poverty gap index. The headcount looks just at those below the poverty line, while the other indices consider how far below the line people fall. Reducing poverty requires increasing access to necessities like food, healthcare, education, as well as growing personal incomes and controlling overpopulation.
This document provides information about a transportation systems analysis course taught by Dr. Sadra Sharifi in Fall 2016. The course introduces a systems approach to analyze and design transportation systems using modeling concepts like linear programming, network analysis, and simulation. The objective is for students to learn fundamental transportation system elements and how to analyze and design specific systems. By the end, students should be able to apply these skills to research problems. The course covers topics like problem solving, linear programs, network models, project scheduling, simulation, and decision making. Students will be evaluated based on homework, a project, midterms, and a final exam.
The document provides news highlights from the Business Council of Mongolia covering business, economic, and political news. Some of the top stories include:
- TT's East block of the Tavan Tolgoi coal project is set to begin large-scale production on December 1st.
- Mongolia is continuing negotiations with international miners to develop the TT West block after complaints caused them to cancel the previous agreement.
- Rio Tinto and Ivanhoe Mines stocks rebounded after the Mongolian government backed down from attempts to renegotiate the Oyu Tolgoi investment agreement.
- Erdene Resources reported encouraging early results from drilling at its Altan Nar gold prospect in southwest Mongolia.

This document provides an overview of the human senses and visual system. It discusses the general senses of touch, temperature, pressure and pain. The special senses of smell, taste, sight, hearing and balance are also covered. Most of the document focuses on the structures and functions of the eye, including the accessory structures, layers of the eye, neurons in the retina, lens accommodation, common vision conditions, and the visual pathway in the brain. Key eye structures like the cornea, iris, pupil, lens, vitreous humor and optic nerve are described.
