Systems Integration at London Heathrow Terminal 5
CMR 420, 02/01/09 Winter 2009 | Vol.51, No.2 | REPRINT SERIES CaliforniaReview Management Innovation in Megaprojects: Systems Integration at London Heathrow Terminal 5 Andrew Davies David Gann Tony Douglas © 2009 by The Regents of the University of California Innovation in Megaprojects: SYSTEMS INTEGRATION AT LONDON HEATHROW TERMINAL 5 Andrew Davies David Gann Tony Douglas growing number of infrastructure projects are being proposed and built throughout the world. A megaproject is an investment of $1B or more to build the physical infrastructures that enable people, resources, and information to move within buildings and betweenA locations throughout the world. Organizations responsible for produc- ing megaprojects face a “performance paradox.” Despite the growth in number and opportunities to beneﬁt from learning, megaprojects continue to have poor performance records.1 Most are unsuccessful measured against their original time, cost, quality, and safety objectives, as well as their expected revenue predictions. The construction of airport infrastructure provides examples of how megaprojects can go wrong. When Denver’s $5B international airport opened in 1995, it was almost 200 per cent over the original budget, 16 months late, and passenger trafﬁc achieved only half the predicted revenues. The opening of the airport was plagued by problems with the baggage handling system, which was eventually abandoned in August 2005. Although Hong Kong’s $20B Chek Lap Kok airport opened on time in July 1998, severe disruptions were experienced for six months after opening due to computer problems with the baggage han- dling system. The authors thank Jennifer Whyte, Catelijne Coopmans, and Tim Brady, who worked on a larger study of the T5 project with us, and four anonymous referees who helped to develop our conceptual approach.

Aggregate Waiting Time Reduction on Public Transportation Networks
Aggregate waiting time reduction on public transportation networks An application of multilayer networks Frederique A.E. Akse Linacre College University of Oxford A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of MSc Mathematical Modelling and Scientific Computing 2013 - 2014 2 TO MY GRANDFATHER { whom I was never fortunate enough to meet anywhere else than the problem solving sessions in my dreams and in the sudden moments of clarity in times of need (read exams). Acknowledgements I first want to thank my supervisors Mason Porter and Mikko Kivelä. During the writing of this dissertation they have given me the freedom to explore and discover the field of networks while providing me with enough guidance to navigate myself through an ever expanding network of interesting papers and data sets. You have let me experience what it is like to do (real) research. I want to express my gratitude towards Riccardo Gallotti and Raghav Pant for their help during this project and to the Infrastructure Tran- sitions Research Consortium (ITRC) for supplying data on the British rail network. I also want to thank my parents with whom I first came to Oxford and who will luckily both be there to drive me back for their endless support. A big thank you also to my brother who spend countless hours of his vacation in the MMSC office just so we could have dinner together in the evening. I hope Atomic Burger was worth it. I want to express my gratitude to professor Jan Bouwe van den Berg from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam for his guidance and help during my undergraduate studies.

Draft London Plan Consultation: ref. Chapter 7 Heritage - Neglect & Destruction February 2018 The “Lillie Enclave” Fulham Within a quarter mile radius of Lillie Bridge, by West Brompton station is A microcosm of the Industrial Revolution - A part of London’s forgotten heritage The enclave runs from Lillie Bridge along Lillie Road to North End Road and includes Empress (formerly Richmond) Place to the north and Seagrave Road, SW6 to the south. The roads were named by the Fulham Board of Works in 1867 Between the Grade 1 Listed Brompton Cemetery in RBKC and its Conservation area in Earl’s Court and the Grade 2 Listed Hermitage Cottages in H&F lies an astonishing industrial and vernacular area of heritage that English Heritage deems ripe for obliteration.
