Using the Abrams Tank Crewman One-Step Unit Training as a case study, this study identifies alternative approaches for individual training and analyzes their cost implications. It suggests that although the current course's content and length is consistent with job requirements in the initial duty assignment, more efficient training techniques can be used in resident instruction. The analysis shows that many armor-specific tasks currently taught using tanks can be taught using training aids, devices, simulators, and simulations (TADSS). In addition, the amount of computer-based training (CBT) can be increased in basic training. Expanded use of TADSS to replace training on vehicles can provide substantial savings in operating and support costs, but the level of costs and savings depends on how the devices and course changes are implemented. If new trainers and simulators must be developed and procured, savings will be cut. The study also found that savings differ across devices. Although substituting TADSS for tanks appears cost effective, the evidence for CBT is mixed.

Beaucoup de recherches ont porté sur les aspects négatifs du transport (émissions nocives, nuisances sonores, surcharge du réseau, problèmes de sécurité), particulièrement en ce qui concerne le trafic routier. La Conférence européenne des ministres des transports (CEMT) a décidé d’organiser une Table ronde qui envisagerait le secteur des transports différemment, en considérant les avantages des différents modes de transport pour la collectivité en général. La quatre-vingt-treizième Table ronde a étudié les différents modes de transport ainsi que leurs contributions respectives à la croissance économique, au développement régional, aux relations sociales et aux besoins de mobilité. Avec son nouveau cadre analytique, cette Table ronde se démarque des autres approches trop conventionnelles.
