Fire Service Accessibility To East Palo Alto, Ca, Henderson Sylvester Ford Iii

Master's Projects

The general pattern of fire emergency incidents and service delivery in East Palo Alto was evaluated using CIS overlay analysis.

Military Conservation Partnerships, Laura M. Caballero

Master's Projects

The military has unintentionally become a steward of some of our country’s most precious natural resources. Many military installations surrounded by encroaching urbanization have earned reputations for being “islands of biodiversity” (Army Congressional Testimony to Senate Armed Forces Committee, 2001). Military training land provides a safe harbor for wildlife displaced by urban development. In addition, most military installations escape erosion problems caused by high-density development and boast some of the purest wetlands in their communities. Military installations also provide communities with excellent recreation opportunities, from wildlife viewing and hiking to hunting and fishing. The military takes pride in its commitment …

The Effects Of Regional Planning On Suburuban Tokyo Metropolitan Areas, Michael Corbett

Master's Projects

In the current economic downturn that Japan is experiencing, there are a number of issues concerning Tokyo suburban areas that face Japanese planners. Among them are the effects of the historical movements of the population into what is now the Tokyo Metropolitan Areah the transfer of power to local governments^; land availability and social problems caused by the changing demographics of an aging Japanese society in those areas. Unfortunately, during the rapid urbanization spurred by necessary development after World War II little thought was given to quality of life issues such as building design or area plans. Instead, emphasis was …

Some of the important conclusions identified by the study are …

Terrorism Overview, Mti Report 01-14, Brian M. Jenkins

Mineta Transportation Institute

Recent global events make it clear that the threat of terrorism is one to be taken seriously. For those who are attempting to kill in quantity and kill indiscriminately, surface transportation offers the ideal target. Because of the public nature of mass transit, there is often little security with no checkpoints as is the case with airports. The practice of terrorism has moved in varying directions in recent years, depending upon different forms of transportation systems and venues of operation. On the positive side, terrorist attacks on commercial aviation have declined significantly after reaching a high point in the 1970s, …

Online Game Communities Are Social In Nature., Cindy Ahuna

SWITCH

In this article, the author discusses about how can an online game form a community as essential as real life and how the community of online gaming has developed through their own platform. The author refers to artist/curator Anne-Marie Schleiner, as he describes social developments in gaming. Sometimes, the social bonds developed in these groups extend beyond the game into friendship. Players will offer each other moral support through personal hardship and help each other find jobs. Although similar to the real life, however, when communities form through an online game platform, a semantic world of sharing knowledge, solving problems, …
