  • Ola Mestad the Impact of the US Constitution on the Norwegian
    Ola Mestad The Impact of the US Constitution on the Norwegian Constitution and on Emigration to America The Bicentennial of the Norwegian Constitution in 2014 had special significance for everyone interested in constitutional developments and, in particular, the relationship between the Norwegian and the American Constitutions. These constitutions are the only ones to have survived from the revolutionary period between 1776 and 1814, which is why they have many similarities. However, this has not always been immediately apparent, not even among scholars of constitutional history. My intent here is, firstly, to point out some of these similarities and explain the influence the United States Constitution had on the Norwegian Constitution and, secondly, since there are also differences between the constitutions, I will attempt to discuss whether some of these differences may have had an impact on Norwegian emigration to the United States. 1 [First page of the original Norwegian Constitution signed on 17 may 1814. Source: Stortinget] Let us first look at the Norwegian Constitution. When the 112 constitutional fathers-to-be convened at Eidsvoll, Norway on 10 April 1814, 1 they came from widely varying backgrounds. The assembly ranged from the country’s only count, Count Herman Wedel-Jarlsberg, to the sailor Even Thorsen. Decisive influence on the content of the Constitution and the progress of its formulation was exerted by a group of government officials educated in Copenhagen, the former joint Dano-Norwegian capital. Of these, 26 were lawyers, 15 were theologians, and some were military officers. In the Constitutions Com3/mittee, which carried out the work of writing the Constitution, 14 of the 15 members were or had been government officials.2 The Norwegian Constitution is the last of a wave of revolutionary constitutions that was set off by the American Declaration of Independence in 1776 and ended with the Norwegian Constitution of 17 May 1814.

INNLEDNING Hovedkildene til Grunnlovens tilblivelseshistorie er Eidsvollsforsamlingens håndskrevne protokoller, men de er magre kilder som bare kort og summarisk refererer det som foregikk i riksforsamlingssalen. Noen få trykte dokumenter reflekterer også forsamlingens arbeid, men siden det medbrakte trykkeriet ikke fungerte som planlagt, måtte Eidsvollsmennene selv møysommelig skrive ned de viktigste arbeidsdokumentene underveis. Uten dette håndskrevne materialet og deltagernes private opptegnelser og brev ville bildet av begivenhetene i april-mai 1814 vært såre tørt og ufullstendig.

  • Optimal Paths in Real Multimodal Transportation Networks: an Appraisal Using GIS Data from New Zealand and Europe
    Proceedings of the 45th Annual Conference of the ORSNZ, November 2010 Optimal Paths in Real Multimodal Transportation Networks: An Appraisal Using GIS Data from New Zealand and Europe Felipe Lillo, Frederik Schmidt School of Computing and Mathematical Sciences AUT University Auckland, New Zealand {flillovi,fschmidt}@aut.ac.nz Abstract The most convenient route to connect two locations is often a mix of different trans- portation systems. For instance, a user can make intercity trips by selecting a combination of transport modes such as car, rail, ship or airplane. In this case the transportation system is said to be multimodal. In this paper, real multimodal transportation systems are experimentally analyzed. Real road–rail networks from Denmark, Hungary, Spain, Norway and New Zealand are built based on a set of digitized transportation maps obtained from several GIS libraries. These networks are modelled as coloured–edge graphs to be used as main input by a multimodal Dijkstra’s algorithm that computes a set of optimal paths. The cardinality of the resulting set is at the core of the approach tractability. It is concluded that vertices connectivity and network shape considerably affect the total number of optimal paths. Key words: Multimodal network, coloured–edge graph, GIS libraries, transporta- tion networks. 1 Introduction A multimodal network (MMN) is a transportation system that considers two or more transport choices for connecting locations (vertices) in a network. Freight and urban transportation are two application fields in which multimodal networks are ex- tensively found. In (Bontekoning, Macharis, and Trip 2004) freight transportation is thoroughly reviewed for identifying possible research trends.
