Agile Transportation System (ATS) Values and Principles

Here’s a draft of the Agile Transportation System (ATS) Values and Principles.

ATS Core Values


  1. Adaptability Over Rigidity - ATS prioritizes flexible route adjustments and dynamic scheduling based on real-time demand rather than fixed, inefficient routes.

  2. Availability Over Scarcity - There should always be an ATS unit available when and where it's needed, reducing wait times and ensuring continuous service.

  3. Efficiency Over Redundancy - Every unit must maximize passenger load without compromising speed and convenience, ensuring an optimal balance of utilization.

  4. Simplicity Over Complexity - Operations should be straightforward, avoiding unnecessary bureaucracy and ensuring seamless passenger movement.

  5. Continuous Improvement Over Static Systems - ATS evolves based on data and feedback, refining operations to enhance reliability and customer satisfaction.

  6. Customer Experience Over Just Transportation - The system is not just about moving people; it's about making their journey smooth, predictable, and stress-free.

  7. Collaboration Over Isolation - ATS integrates with existing transport networks, businesses, and urban planning efforts to create a cohesive transit ecosystem.






ATS Core Principles


  1. Demand-Driven Routing - Vehicles adjust their routes dynamically based on demand patterns rather than strictly following predefined paths.

  2. Real-Time Optimization - ATS continuously monitors traffic conditions, vehicle locations, and passenger volume to make data-driven adjustments.

  3. Minimum Wait Time Guarantee - A system-driven approach ensures that no passenger is left waiting too long, using standby vehicles when necessary.

  4. Modular and Scalable Operations - The network can expand or contract based on real-world needs, avoiding unnecessary costs or inefficiencies.

  5. Lean Fleet Management - Every vehicle deployed should have a clear purpose—whether transporting passengers, repositioning for demand, or resting for maintenance.

  6. Driver Empowerment and Accountability - Drivers are decision-makers on the ground, given tools and guidelines to optimize their trips while being accountable for efficiency and service quality.

  7. Feedback-Driven Evolution - ATS learns from ridership trends, commuter feedback, and operational data to refine scheduling, pricing, and routing.

  8. Energy and Resource Efficiency - Even though ATS uses conventional vehicles, it prioritizes fuel efficiency, optimized routing, and minimal idle time to reduce waste and cost.

  9. Transparent Communication - Passengers, drivers, and operators all have access to live data on vehicle availability, estimated arrival times, and alternative options.

  10. Fail-Safe System Design - There should always be a backup plan—whether rerouting, calling standby units, or integrating with other modes of transport—to prevent service disruption.

task manager: before clicking end process - part 2

continuation of the 1st part 1. igfxpers.exe - is a process installed alongside NVidia graphics cards and provides additional configuration options for these devices. "This program is a non-essential process, but should not be terminated unless suspected to be causing problems." processlibrary.com says its not a critical component. so there's nothing to worry about 2. igfxsrvc.exe - is a process associated with Intel(R) Common User Interface from Intel Corporation. It is installed with graphic card drivers with Intel chipsets. This program is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated. from processlibrary.com i wouldn't want to terminate this. 3. igfxtray.exe - is a process which allows you to access the Intel Graphics configuration and diagnostic application for the Intel 810 series graphics chipset. This program is a non-essential system process, and is installed for ease of use via the desktop tray. also ...

How AI is Revolutionizing Industries in the Philippines: Manufacturing, Healthcare, and Retail

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries around the globe, and the Philippines is no exception. As the country continues to embrace digital transformation, AI has become a game-changer for key sectors like manufacturing, healthcare, and retail. In this blog, we explore how AI is specifically transforming these industries and why it’s crucial for businesses to integrate AI solutions. AI in Manufacturing: Streamlining Processes and Boosting Efficiency Manufacturing is a vital part of the Philippine economy, and AI is poised to revolutionize this sector. AI can automate repetitive tasks, such as assembly and quality control, significantly improving production efficiency. Predictive maintenance powered by AI can prevent costly machine breakdowns by predicting potential failures before they occur. Additionally, AI’s ability to optimize supply chains ensures better inventory management and cost savings. With AI’s potential to reduce downtime, streamline logistics, and...

skyfire browser

I recently rediscovered skyfire browser. and when I say it's good, it's very good. it took me a day to get the hang of it on my samsung i780. after that, it's all worth the surf. still figuring out though, the multiple tab function. that's if ther's one. back when I first got this i780, I remember that i installed the older(i guess) version of skyfire which I didn't like. so, I opted for the opera. but I think i'll be switching again this time... oh, btw. im posting this entry with skyfire. just try to google it.
