“…Pang et al [44], starting from the evaluation of spatial accessibility, spatial recognizability, spatial privacy, and community services, identified the main influencing factors on the sense of security in outdoor public spaces within communities. Additionally, transportation spaces are also included in the research scope, examining the impact of traffic safety and accessibility on pedestrians' sense of security [45,46].…”

The safety of public spaces on university campuses directly affects the mental and physical well-being of both faculty and students, significantly contributing to the stability and growth of the institution. Therefore, evaluating and optimizing the sense of security in these public areas is paramount. This study adopts a human-centric approach and selects five physical environmental metrics to construct a comprehensive safety perception model encompassing both day and night, using the analytic hierarchy process. By leveraging evaluation outcomes, a maximum coverage location-allocation model constrained by a facility service radius is employed to optimize the layout of the public amenities on campus, supported by empirical research conducted at the Wuchang Campus of the Wuhan Institute of Technology. The results indicate that a notable decrease in public areas provides a low sense of security to users and that an increase in public areas provides users with a high sense of security. The results demonstrate a considerable enhancement in both the daytime and nighttime sense of security due to the implemented optimization measures. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the constituent elements shaping the sense of security in campus public spaces, offering concrete strategies for their evaluation and enhancement, thereby fostering a more scientifically grounded layout of campus public facilities and advancing the creation of a harmonious and secure campus environment.

The paper describes the choice of a technical solution for the implementation of a fault-tolerant real-time control system under external control. The main idea of the method is to introduce an external control block of the main control system that includes a watchdog and a backup decision-making algorithm. This block was supposed to be executed on an external FPGA-based block. The main system was supposed to be executed on the CPU. The paper proposes a variant of creating the entire system on a single FPGA. It implements both the processor cores for the operation of the main control system and control block. Various variants of cores for implementation on FPGA are considered. The paper studies suitable projects of processor cores for implementation on FPGA. It is concluded that the LEON series cores are suitable for the problem of building a fault-tolerant control system, since they already have technical solutions to improve fault tolerance. It is concluded that the proposed approach to building a fault-tolerant control system with external control can be fully implemented on a single FPGA. It has some advantages over implementation on separate blocks.

Despite the increasing sophistication of autonomous vehicles (AVs) and promises of increased safety, accidents will occur. These will corrode public trust and negatively impact user acceptance, adoption and continued use. It is imperative to explore methods that can potentially reduce this impact. The aim of the current paper is to investigate the efficacy of informational assistants (IAs) varying by anthropomorphism (humanoid robot vs. no robot) and dialogue style (conversational vs. informational) on trust in and blame on a highly autonomous vehicle in the event of an accident. The accident scenario involved a pedestrian violating the Highway Code by stepping out in front of a parked bus and the AV not being able to stop in time during an overtake manoeuvre. The humanoid (Nao) robot IA did not improve trust (across three measures) or reduce blame on the AV in Experiment 1, although communicated intentions and actions were perceived by some as being assertive and risky. Reducing assertiveness in Experiment 2 resulted in higher trust (on one measure) in the robot condition, especially with the conversational dialogue style. However, there were again no effects on blame. In Experiment 3, participants had multiple experiences of the AV negotiating parked buses without negative outcomes. Trust significantly increased across each event, although it plummeted following the accident with no differences due to anthropomorphism or dialogue style. The perceived capabilities of the AV and IA before the critical accident event may have had a counterintuitive effect. Overall, evidence was found for a few benefits and many pitfalls of anthropomorphising an AV with a humanoid robot IA in the event of an accident situation.
