Incontrol recently finished a project for the Dutch Driving Test Organization, CBR. CBR assesses driving licenses in the first place and medical ability of drivers as well as professional skills of employees working in the field of transportation and logistics in the second place. Most important, CBR offers a wide range of exams for passenger cars, trucks, motor cycles and cars with trailers. To this end, CBR needs to carefully determine the number of exam slots and examiners. Exams, in this article, are referred to as the real driving tests instead of the theoretical exams.

In the year 2010 the World Expo will be held in Shanghai, China. The Dutch design studio Kossmann.dejong was awarded one of the five theme pavilions called the "Urbanian Pavilion". In total, the World Expo has 200 participants, for a duration of six months. About 70 million visitors are expected. On average 40.000 people will visit the "Urbanian Pavilion" daily. As Kossmann.dejong still is in the design phase of the pavilion, the deadline of the final design is in sight. Important decisions concerning the infrastructure and visitors flow therefore have to be made soon. With the use of simulation, Incontrol Enterprise Dynamics will help Kossmann.dejong in creating a clear view on the effect of different scenarios on the visitors flow. In total, the visitors will walk 800 meters through the pavilion. During this trip they will enter six theme areas. In each of these areas a different show is presented.

Aerospace manufacturing is a high technology industry where quality and safety get the highest priority in design and production processes. Last year Incontrol carried out a simulation project at Techspace Aero, partner of the world’s major aerospace engine manufacturers. Techspace Aero designs, develops and produces modules, equipment and test cells for aircraft and space engines.

Their basic activity is the design and manufacturing of modules and components for aero engines, with a particularly strong expertise in low-pressure compressors and high tech parts.

July 2008 the Brisbane Airport Corporation Pty Limited announced the acceptance of the Incontrol proposal for the delivery of a Terminal Modeling Tool. In October Incontrol has started with the development of 4 simulation models of the Brisbane International & Domestic Airport Terminals; 2 of the present situation and 2 of the future terminal layouts.

The models will provide valuable and important insights into effective problem management, capacity planning and effective modeling the flow of passengers inside the Terminal throughout the various processes.

Brisbane International Airport is undergoing major infrastructural projects in order to meet the future passenger-growth expected. To improve and support the decision making process Brisbane has asked for the expertise of Incontrol’s simulation engineers and will use Samanta PaxSim software.

In November 2006 I was asked to participate in a pilot around ICT and technology. In de past months there has been regular contact between the company Incontrol, head office VTB Holland and the ICTorganisation Kennisnet/Ictopschool to develop a pilot for the use of the program Enterprise Dynamics in the last years of our primary school.
