STELLA project
http://www.stellaproject.org/
STELLA is a Thematic Network project of the European Commission’s 5th Framework Programme for Research and Development. STELLA is the acronym for Sustainable Transport in Europe and Links and Liaisons with America. It centres around common issues in Transatlantic transport research. The STELLA network started in January 2002 and ended in 2005. If you go to the NextGen link on the lefthand side, you will be able to read response papers from different groups of researchers.
| Who: | STELLA brings together research institutions, universities, industry and public authorities in the transportation field. |
| What: | This is a .org site. STELLA aims to generate value added from knowledge exchange and to support a common research approach from both sides of the Atlantic, which will not only be to the benefit of the research community, but also of interest to policy-making bodies and industrial organisations. The North American participants are drawn from the STAR network (Sustainable Transportation Analysis and Research) and is supported by the National Science Foundation. |
| Where: | Research has been done themselves. |
| When: | last updated 2005 |
| Why: | The information hasn't been updated in a year and probably won't be updated. However, the information is very detailed and specific. The research looks at different factors that lead up to problems in transportation. |
