Luca Lucietti’s scientific contributions

Within the MEDNET project “Mediterranean Network for Custom Procedures and Simplification of Clearance in Ports” funded by the MED programme (2007–2013), Taranto Port Authority (TPA) in Italy has designed and developed newly automatic system (prototype) for an effective and seamless management of port operators enrolment and access in the port area.

The MEDNET project “Mediterranean Network for Custom Procedures and Simplification of Clearance in Ports” funded by the MED programme (2007–2013), was aimed to establish and operate anetwork of port authorities and experts focusing on the exchange of experiences concerning ports and customs procedures and simplification of clearance for vessels and cargoes.

NODES “New tOols for Design and OpEration of Urban Transport InterchangeS” is a collaborative project co-funded by the Seventh Framework Programme focused on building and testing a Toolbox to support European cities in the design and operation of new or upgraded urban transport interchanges. NODES thereby provides greater support, services and satisfaction to travellers and users, to interchange operators as well as those societal and economic actors depending on the efficiency of the interchange. NODES provides a helping hand for European cities striving for inclusive, multimodal and sustainable urban transport. NODES is able to supply solutions and methods for Local Authorities, Public Transport operators as well as interchange promoters to better and more effectively plan, design and manage multimodal transport interchanges in European cities and beyond. NODES uses an integrated approach balancing and integrating land use and transport planning, interchange design, intermodality and Information Communication Technologies (ICT), interchange management and business models, energy and environment issues.
