Wholesale Problems - Ideas - Solutions: Transportation of the Future: Solving Global Problems Together (with Pictures) - Paperback

by Georgiy Tyshko (Author) The book "Transportation of the Future" is the first book in a series of "Problems - Ideas - Solutions." The author takes the liberty to claim that the development of transport in the beginning of the 21st century have stalled. Namely, there appeared the following not addressed by existing methods problems. The problem of traffic jams on the roads. The problem needs to spend hours driving a car. The problem of finding places to Park the car. The problem of motion on a predetermined schedules and places stops. The problem of discrepancy between the cost and the price of the trip. The problem is the physical limit of the speed of wheeled transport. The problem of the need for regular maintenance. The problem is the lack of objective numerical criteria for the establishment of new sections of roads and Parking areas. According to the author, the globality of the problems listed above suggests the impossibility of their solution to existing methods. Namely: the impossibility of solving the above problems by even very large corporations. The author proposes a new paradigm for addressing the global challenges, namely the creation of a global virtual reality similar to "Second Life," focused on permanent visual formulation and discussion current problems and solutions of participants avatars, that is virtual incarnations of the real participants. The new paradigm also implies new relations of production inside the virtual reality when the object of the sale becomes the decision-shaping process and when the material means to the formation of solutions appear from the distribution of advertising among virtual visitors to the pavilions for the setting up and demonstration proposed solutions to the problems. Thus, the first component of the new paradigm solutions to global problem is a collective one, the formulation and discussion of global problems in the virtual reality. The second component of the new paradigm solutions to global problems is collective formation and formulation of ideas to solve a global problems in the above-mentioned global virtual reality. In this case, the second component involves the formulation and the formation of any ideas that are aimed at solving the formulated problems. In the specific case of finding ideas to solve problems transport as a first step, proposed the idea of creating transportation networking funiculars on the basis of electromagnetic levitation. The third component of the new paradigm solutions to global problems is a collective modelling in the above-mentioned virtual reality is formulated and solutions discussed.
