The student team of the Civil Engineering Institute, led by senior lecturer of the ICI Liliya Talipova, won the IT championship “Digital Era of Transport”. The awarding of the champions took place at the industry forum “Road Construction in Russia: Innovations, Technologies, Quality”.
The team was presented with diplomas and gift certificates by the head of the Federal Road Agency Roman Novikov and the director of the Digital Era of Transport Association Dmitry Olkhovikov.
Students are already proposing practical solutions – from optimizing traffic lights to monitoring the laying of asphalt concrete. This is proof that young people are already shaping the future, – noted Roman Novikov.
The event was held with the support and participation of the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services, the Federal Road Agency, the State Duma, the Federal State Institution Rosavtodor, the R.O.S.ASFALT Association, as well as specialized institutions and institutes. The organizer was the Digital Era of Transport Association.
Teams of students from eight regions of our country took part in the championship. The ISI Vysota team (Artem Yenikeev, Evangelina Morozova, Alexandra Solodova, Anna Ryabova, Igor Tokarev and Yaroslav Sosnovsky) confidently solved the case from FSUE ZashchitaInfo Trans “Configuring traffic lights in a small town”. The Polytechnicians developed a model for optimizing traffic light phases.
Working on the case solution became an excellent example of integrating mathematical modeling skills, programming and knowledge of the road industry to solve current problems of intelligent transport systems. It was the diversity of competencies in the team that allowed us to win. The championship demonstrated the importance of an interdisciplinary approach to solving modern transport problems, as well as the need to develop practice-oriented interaction between IT and the transport industry, – noted postgraduate student Evangelina Morozova.
The ISI Vysota team demonstrated their skills in mathematical modeling and programming during the case study. It should be noted that most of the team acquired programming skills while studying in the Digital Departments project programs, Liliya Talipova emphasized.
