The environment is characterized on the one hand by the use of micro-computers which, in addition to their local intelligence, allow access to a central mainframe'. On the other hand, computer graphics techniques play an important raie, which allows for the efficient representation of the enormous amount of data involved in transport management and planning. These tasks can be classified under two major headings: data analysis, where the principal tools are the SAS and SPSS packages run on the mainframe whereas dBASEII, LOTUS 1-2-3 and Stat-Pac are used with the micro-computers; and transport modelling, aided by the EMME/2, MADITUC and UTPS software. Both in terms of hardware and software, graphics and micro-computers have been effectively incorporated into our environment, facilitating considerably the work of planners and managers and enabling that work to reach a level of quality which could not be achieved using conventional methods.

It is therefore necessary that accurate contemporaneous information be available as a basis for assessing the current situation. It is also essential to possess tools which enable the impact of administrative decisions to be evaluated. Since the effectiveness and the productivity of a public agency are directly related to the speed and flexibility with which its employees function, requiring them to work with unwieldy tools traditionally reserved for use by highly specialized professionals would serve no purpose. Moreover, the staggering quantity of resultats which these tools can produce can never be fully exploited nor efficiently be transposed into graphical form by manual methods. In order ta maintain a high level of efficiency among its personnel and ta provide the best possible service to the transport community, the "Direction générale du transport terrestre des personnes" has followed a course of acquiring flexible tools incorporating graphics techniques and to render them accessible to ah l of its personnel. It has therefore established an Information Systems Service to carry out the following tasks: Acquire, maintain and analyse ail relevant data with respect to personal ground transport. Develop or install models or procedures allowing for evaluation of road and public transport policy or projects 2 3) Design and maintain management information systems. The presentation which follows will attempt to show the approach adopted by the D.G.G.T.P. in order to achieve these goals, with a particular emphasis on the role of micro-computing hardware and computer graphics techniques. The first part of the presentation is a summary description of the computer environment which has evolved in our organization. This is followed by a demonstration, using numerous examples of graphics results, of how our activities are carried out in this environment. The reader will find, at the end of this text, a brief glossary of the acronyms used and reference index for the hardware and software products described. 2 COMPUTER ENVIRONMENT COMPUTER ENVIRONMENT Our computer environment, which we have attempted to illustrate schematically in Figure 1, consists of an array of hardware facilities supported and driven by a variety of software.

Every company in every industry wants to build a much stronger digital foundation to fundamentally change the way its business works. There is Today your no going back. In the next two to three years, we expect to see digital transformation at a rate that, before 2020, we thought company is would take 5 to 10 years. Perhaps the most profound and exciting change our clients are experiencing is the adoption of new business models positioned to lead based on digital technologies that IBM is building. This is evident whether you look at the use of AI-powered assistants to offset the massive increase of requests fl ooding call as we enter the era centers, the meteoric rise of telemedicine, or the use of hybrid cloud to build rich, personalized and secure experiences in of hybrid cloud areas like digital banking. As I will describe to you in this letter, we have made decisive and AI. As I write moves to help our clients thrive by tapping into the immense power of hybrid cloud and AI.
