Operations Research and Behavioral Informatics in Transportation

An operations-research lens over a golden-hour Delft street: pedestrians, cyclist and delivery van read as agents and flow vectors.

ORβIT develops decision methods for socio-technical systems in which actors respond on their own terms, conditions evolve, and the timing and sequencing of decisions determine what remains possible.
