| Abstract: |
The Proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on Automated People Movers (APMs) in Las Vegas, Nevada, April 9-12, 1997, includes 75 papers. Papers provide an introduction to APMs, planning for APMs, and applications of these systems at airports, major activity centers, and in urban areas. Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) and other innovative systems are presented, and safety, operations, implementation, and procurement aspects are discussed. The diverse coverage makes it a valuable reference source in the field of automated people movers. |
