We present the program objectives as they are currently implemented at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and we present and discuss the experience of two groups of SUTD faculty members that participated and completed the program. This FDP resulted from the collaboration between MIT, the Singaporean Ministry of Education, and the Singapore University of Technology and Design (MIT-SUTD Collaboration) to develop a new engineering-oriented university, while in parallel addressing the timely formation of an institutional identity and culture that borrows from those of MIT. To achieve this endeavor of institutional transplantation, the MIT team developed an immersive FDP as one of the critical building blocks. This FDP emphasizes bottoms-up, self-organization and self-formation initiatives.

It shows that flexibility in the design and deployment strategy of an ADSR park demonstrator significantly reduces its expected LCOE. The methodology recognizes in the conceptual design a range of possible technological outcomes for the ADSR

The analysis encompasses all modes of transportation, including rail, motor, water, air and intermodal coordinative institutions, and focuses upon the impact of alternative regulatory policies. Volume II includes: an introduction and overview; a
