The Role
This is a
research project aiming to develop a context-aware kerbside
application framework to better understand user behaviour and other
contextual information that can be used to improve the process of
dynamically assigning kerbside virtual bays. The project involves a
human behaviour analysis to identify behavioural patterns of key
stakeholders, including drivers, depot and transport managers, and
enforcement officers. The project will develop a context-aware
model that captures the complex interactions among local councils,
logistics providers, and road users, with the aim of improving the
efficiency and effectiveness of the kerbside space allocation. It
also evaluates subsequent benefits by comparing them.
The successful
applicant will be expected to develop a high performance and
heavily featured version of an application framework using
behavioural theoretical frameworks, determine the factors that
affect users' behavioural intentions and behavioural control, and
the social influence and its emphasis on external and internal
social reinforcement that users learn from the dynamic and
reciprocal interaction of people, environment, and behaviour. The
applicant will be expected to work closely with Prof Ji Yan,
research staff in the school of business, the project business
partner, local councils, drivers, and end users to conduct a series
of research activities.
