To provide further insight into this issue, the Younger Member Forum selected "International Work" as the topic for its Ninth Annual Executive Forum; which was held at the new academic building (41 Cooper Square) at The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art1 on February 26, 2010.

Long Island Branch

Given the wide range of traffic software currently available on the market, a common decision faced by traffic engineers is the type of software program that should be used on their project. On February 11, 2010, Luigi Casinelli of HDR helped answer this important question with a presentation to the Long Island Branch on "The World Cup of Traffic Software." He explained how to select from the numerous number of traffic software programs and when it was more cost effective to use one type of software over the other for particular projects.
