  • Train Scheduling of Shinkansen and Relationship to Reliable Train Operation
    Computers in Railways XII 133 Train scheduling of Shinkansen and relationship to reliable train operation S. Sone & Y. Zhongping Beijing Jiaotong University, China Abstract This paper explains why security is important, especially in Asia, as well as safety, and how we established reliable transportation in the Japanese Shinkansen, mainly in relation to train scheduling. The authors also describe several ideas actually taken by Shinkansen in order to realise reliable operation even in the case of possible disturbances. Out of many ideas, some examples of which are shown here, selective adoption according to the purpose of the railway or line is strongly recommended, together with given conditions taken into account. Keywords: disturbance, punctuality, reliable operation, spare time, train scheduling. 1 Introduction Features of east-Asian high-speed railways are very dense passenger flow together with frequent train operation with a big capacity. In order to realise reliable transportation in this circumstance, safe train operation in a narrow sense, which is guaranteed mainly by signalling system, is not enough; secure passenger flow must also be guaranteed even when some traffic disturbances take place. This is the reason why the authors present this paper, which mainly deals with security rather than safety, for the special invited session of "Traffic Control and Safety of High-speed Railways in Asia". Just after the inauguration of Tokaido Shinkansen in 1964, we had many disruptions to train operation due to rain and snowfall, breakdown of the power feeding system, deterioration of track conditions due to excess axleload, etc. In a narrow sense of safety, the Japanese Shinkansen carried more than nine billion passengers without any casualty by train accident, which is by far the safest WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, Vol 114, © 2010 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 (on-line) doi:10.2495/CR100131 134 Computers in Railways XII railway in the world.

  • Drawing on the Design Perspective Towards an Affirmation of English As a Lingua Franca
    Englishes in Practice 2016; 3(2): 29-54 DOI: 101515/eip-2016-0002 Glenn Toh Academic Writing in a Japanese Situation: Drawing on the Design Perspective towards an Affirmation of English as a Lingua Franca Abstract The contents of this article concern ELF 500, a course in graduate school academic writing that adopts an ELF-aware approach. In my discussion, I will first review the literature on language, ideology and power as it relates to Japanese cultural politics. Following this, I will draw on the notions of critique and design as described in Lillis (2003) as critical transformative strategies to encourage student academic writers to become more conscious of: (1) the constructed and situated nature of knowledge and meaning making as viewed by scholars in the area of academic literacies; (2) the importance of their own agency towards realizing their potential as academic thinkers and writers; and (3) the importance of understanding the fluid, dynamic and performative nature of English in its role as a lingua franca as a means towards constructing meanings that are valuable and unique to their own emergent ontologies as Japanese users of ELF. My discussion is, throughout, very much motivated by a professional concern that the teaching of academic writing should be carried out within an overall pedagogical framework that recognizes the importance of the humanizing and transformative role of language education. Keywords: Critical Pedagogy, Locality, Identity and Meaning Making 29 要約 本論文では、ELF モデルを使用したアカデミック・ライティングの授業である ELF500 に関して論述する。始めに、言語・イデオロギー・権力と日本文化・政治 との関係についての先攻研究に言及する。 次に、Lillis (2003)による「批評 (critique)」と「デザイン(design)」の意味について説明する。それらは、次の 事柄に対する学生の認識をより促進するストラテジーとして述べられている。(1) アカデミックリテラシー研究者がみなしている、知識と意味形成が持つ建設的・ 状況的特徴 (2) 学術的思想家および書き手としての可能性を理解するための、自 分自身の主体性の重要性 (3)日本人英語話者にとって特有で価値のある比類ない 意味を創造するために、ELF の動的性質を理解することの必要性。この議論は、ア カデミック・ライティングの指導は、個性や言語の変容的役割の重要性を認める 教育基盤において行われるべきであるという著者の関心に基づいたものである。 キーワード：批判的教育学、地域思想、地域アイデンティティ、意味形成 1.
