Emeritus Professor of Electrical Engineering of the University of London. Honorary Member of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, London. Honorary Member of the Royal Engineers' Institute, Chatham. Honorary Fellow of the Society of Engineers, London. Honorary Member of the Society of Engineers, Liege, Belgium. Honorary Doctor of Engineering, University of Liverpool. Honorary Fellow of St. John's College, Cambridge. Honorary Fellow of the Institute of Physics, London. Corresponding Member of the Royal Philosophical Society of Glasgow. Honorary Member of the Lancaster Astronomical and Scientific Association. Has been for more than fifty years closely and practically connected with the introduction into Great Britain, and working, of the epoch­ making inventions of the Telephone, Incandescent Electric Lighting and Wireless Telegraphy. In 1885 he was appointed the first Professor of Electrical Engineering in University College, London, a position he held for forty-two years. For more than thirty years he acted as Adviser to Marconi's Wireless Telegraph Company, and assisted in the design of the first long-distance wireless station at Poldhu in Cornwall. His most important invention in connection with wireless telegraphy was the first form of Thermionic Valve which has been the precursor of all sub­ sequent valves of 3, 4 and 5 electrode form. For this invention, the Royal Society of Arts, London, awarded him in 1921 their highest distinc­ tion-the Albert Medal. He received the Faraday Medal of the Institution of Electrical Engineers in 1928, the Duddell Medal of the Physical Society of London in 1931 and the Hughes Medal of the Royal Society of London in 1910. He has carried out a large amount of original research in Electrical Physics and has been a Fellow of the Royal Society of London for forty-five years. He has published some twenty books on various subjects, some of which have had a world-wide circula­ tion, and about one hundred papers on his scientific researches. He has been a Vice-President of the Institution of Electrical Engineers and is President of the Television Society. He received in 1933 two Medals of Honour from the Institute of Radio Engineers of New York, U.S.A., for his wireless work, and was voted in 1935 the award of the Franklin Medal by The Franklin Institute of America, the highest award for the Physical Sciences in the United States. When the Institution of Electrical Engineers of London celebrated its Jubilee in 1922, he was selected to give the Oration on " Faraday and the Foundations of Electrical Engineering." In May, 1923, he gave the fourteenth Kelvin Lecture before the same Institution on " Problems in Telephony Solved and Unsolved," and in 1935 he was awarded the great honour of the Kelvin Medal in recognition of the eminent services he has rendered to engineering science by his work and investigations in those branches of engineering with which the late Lord Kelvin was especially identified. {J;h;,,z/ ~1?'1,ode Sf!Zn?',,~, .LY /, S?r. .9:., f.~ ? 00 JOURNAL OF THE TRANSACTIONS OF OR, 'l}gilosopgirnl Sotid!l of ~rrnt ~ritain.

A L L RIGHT S RE 8 ER V E J>, 1937 LONDON: HARRISON A~D so~s, LTD,, PRINTERS IN ORDINARY TO HIS MAJESTY, ST. MARTIN'S LANE, PREFACE --- THE cordial thanks of the Institute are due to the authors of the ten papers, comprised in this volume. A great deal of time and trouble is necessarily involved in their preparation. That is shown from the high standard both of scholarship and exposition which characterises their contributions. Special mention ought to be made of the fact that the papers are so readable. They can be perused with pleasure, as well as with abounding profit to mind and heart, by any person of good education, although they deal with • matters which are, in their very nature, abstruse and complicated. That feature is specially characteristic of the contributions from the pen of our honoured President. Since he took office, Sir Ambrose Fleming has enriched successive volumes with discussions which combine in the most effective fashion vast stores of erudition and the gift of graceful and lucid explanation. One of the aims of the Institute is to arrange for such lectures by those who have specialised in some branch of research or investigation that the members may be kept in touch with the latest advances in the kingdom of knowledge. It must not, however, be supposed that the views expressed in ~hese ten lectures, or even in the discussion which followed their delivery, necessarily represent the convictions and conclusions enter­ tained by the Institute as a whole. Each contributor is given freedom within reasonable limits to embody in his paper the theories which seem to him to do the fullest justice to the facts in the field with which he deals. In many cases, the trend of the discussion will show at once that the contentions of the lecturer have not met with the unqualified approval of the members of the Institute. The latter believe profoundly in the need for free discussion as an indispensable aid for the elucidation of truth. The Institute is glad to provide a forum for such an exchange of ideas. If the views of vi PREFACE. the lecturer do not accord with those held by the members, the the paper is none the less appreciated, and none the less welcome. But it must be clearly understood that the inclusion of a paper in this volume does not imply that the imprimatur of the Institute is set upon all that it may contain. For those members who regularly attend its meetings, such observations are obviously superfluous. These volumes of Transa~tions, however, travel to the ends of the earth, and find a place on the shelves of numerous learned libraries. In these circumstances, it is perhaps desirable to state definitely from time to time that the standpoint of the Institute is thoroughly evangelical and thoroughly conservative. That seems as if it were an old-fashioned body, lagging far behind the march of modern thought. The Institute is not ashamed of its position, maintained from its foundation in the year 1865, only six years later than the publication of Darwin's Origin of Species, whose teaching it has never ceased to criticise and oppose. In every department of human life, old fashions have got a way of becoming new fashions. It is manifest that, both in theology, philosophy, and science, the trend of thought is towards a position approximating much more closely to that of the Institute than any which has been occupied and defended by the learned world since the beginning of the century. The Institute, therefore, feels that it is rendering some public service by continuing to testify to the validity of the historic doctrines regarding the nature of God and His Universe. H. S.

  • Achieving Value for Money in the Delivery of London's Bus Service
    Finance and Policy Committee Date: 27 November 2013 Item 9: Achieving Value for Money in the Delivery of London’s Bus Service This paper will be considered in public 1 Purpose 1.1 The purpose of this paper is to brief the Committee on: (a) how the planning, tendering and contract and performance management processes are driven to secure value for money; (b) reductions in bus network costs over the last five years; (c) bus operator profit margins; (d) accommodating growth in demand within constrained funding; and (e) service priorities and trade-offs based on achieving a hypothetical 20 per cent saving. 2 Recommendation 2.1 The Committee is asked to note the paper and the related paper on Part 2 of the agenda. 3 Introduction 3.1 Tendering of the London bus network, which commenced in 1985, is conducted in accordance with the negotiated procurement procedure under the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2006. 3.2 The planning, tendering, contracting and performance management arrangements have been continually developed. They are recognised as being mature and effective by the Independent Investment Programme Advisory Group (IIPAG) and internationally, as cities and countries seek information on London’s experience. They are also well understood by bus companies. They are designed to deliver value for money, balancing passenger and stakeholder expectations against cost. TfL has an extensive understanding of the cost of operating bus services in London and maintains a comprehensive cost model to ensure value is achieved in all contract awards and service changes. 1 3.3 The July 2013 IIPAG Benchmarking Report, notes that “the franchising approach appears well developed and TfL has a good understanding of the underlying costs and how these compare between providers.
