- W41336946 abstract "This thesis provides a `proof-of-concept' prototype and a design architecture for aObject Oriented (00) database towards the development of a Decision SupportSystem (DSS) for the national freight transport planning problem. Both governmentsand industry require a Strategic Planning Extranet Decision Support System(SPEDSS) for their effective management of the national Freight Transport Networks(FTN).This thesis addresses the three key problems for the development of a SPEDSS tofacilitate national strategic freight planning: 1) scope and scale of data available andrequired; 2) scope and scale of existing models; and 3) construction of the software.The research approach taken embodies systems thinking and includes the use of:Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOA/D) for problem encapsulation anddatabase design; artificial neural network (and proposed rule extraction) forknowledge acquisition of the United States FTN data set; and an iterative ObjectOriented (00) software design for the development of a `proof-of-concept'prototype. The research findings demonstrate that an 00 approach along with the useof 00 methodologies and technologies coupled with artificial neural networks(ANNs) offers a robust and flexible methodology for the analysis of the FTN problemdomain and the design architecture of an Extranet based SPEDSS.The objectives of this research were to: 1) identify and analyse current problems andproposed solutions facing industry and governments in strategic transportationplanning; 2) determine the functional requirements of an FTN SPEDSS; 3) perform afeasibility analysis for building a FTN SPEDSS `proof-of-concept' prototype and(00) database design; 4) develop a methodology for a national `internet-enabled'SPEDSS model and database; 5) construct a `proof-of-concept' prototype for aSPEDSS encapsulating identified user requirements; 6) develop a methodology toresolve the issue of the scale of data and data knowledge acquisition which would actas the `intelligence' within a SPDSS; 7) implement the data methodology usingArtificial Neural Networks (ANNs) towards the validation of it; and 8) make recommendations for national freight transportation strategic planning and furtherresearch required to fulfil the needs of governments and industry.This thesis includes: an 00 database design for encapsulation of the FTN; an`internet-enabled' Dynamic Modelling Methodology (DMM) for the virtualmodelling of the FTNs; a Unified Modelling Language (UML) `proof-of-concept'prototype; and conclusions and recommendations for further collaborative researchare identified." @default.
