The demonstration and development of Socrates in the Fourth Framework programme
IEE Colloquium on Transport Telematics in the Fourth Framework (Digest No: 1996 070), 1996Co-Authors: I. Catling, R. HarrisAbstract:Socrates stands for "system of cellular radio for travel efficiency and safety". Socrates 3 is a major demonstration project in the Transport Telematics application area of the Fourth Framework programme of research and technological development. The basis for the project is the demonstration of Socrates services in three European sites: Hessen and North Rhine Westfalen in Germany and the EuroDelta test site in the Netherlands. The objectives of the project are to: conduct a validation and demonstration of interoperable transport telematics services based on Socrates; demonstrate international interoperability of Socrates services; provide support for the commercial introduction of Socrates services; continue the evaluation and demonstration of Socrates services based on an upgraded system; establish and develop administrative and organisational links (public-private partnership); further develop the Socrates systems architecture, protocol and geographic database standardisation; conduct a design study for Socrates implementation in Barcelona; and contribute to European standardisation activities for transport telematics.

Socrates-progress towards commercial implementation
Pacific Rim TransTech Conference. 1995 Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference Proceedings. 6th International VNIS. A Ride into the Futu, 1995Co-Authors: I. Catling, R. HarrisAbstract:During the DRIVE 1 and DRIVE 2 programmes, the Socrates research projects developed the concept of using cellular radio for providing digital data into on-board computers to provide a range of applications, including dynamic route guidance and emergency call. The major achievements during DRIVE 2 provided the foundations upon which commercial services can be established. They include; the formulation of a commercial framework for Socrates services and an analysis of the Socrates business case; the promotion of the General Packet Radio Service in the GSM specification to include Socrates requirements; the publishing of the Socrates Application Data Protocol and its acceptance as the basis for a draft standard by CEN Technical Committee 278 Working Group 4.3. This paper presents a review of the DRIVE II Socrates projects, identifies some of the research topics which are still being addressed in the development of Socrates systems and services, and describes the way in which these topics are being included in the European Union Fourth Framework Programme. It also describes plans for the commercial implementation of Socrates services, the way in which these are integrated with other transport telematics applications, and the prospects for widespread implementation of advanced transport telematics (ATT) services based on cellular radio.

The Socrates projects: progress towards an integrated road transport environment
Proceedings of VNIS'94 - 1994 Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1994Co-Authors: I. Catling, R. Harris, F. ZijderhandAbstract:The paper assesses the status of the development of Socrates (System Of Cellular Radio for Traffic Efficiency and Safety) systems in Europe, providing an update on the technology of an integrated road transport environment. Using Socrates, computers in vehicles receive detailed up-to-minute information about traffic conditions. Drivers receive guidance on the best routes and relevant information to help them complete their journeys. Socrates services will integrate with public transport and parking information in order to help to use the complete transport infrastructure most efficiently; other services available using Socrates include an emergency call facility and fleet management applications.

The Socrates projects: Progress towards a pan-European driver information system
Proceedings of VNIS '93 - Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1993Co-Authors: I. Catling, R. Harris, F. ZijderhandAbstract:During the DRIVE 1 program, the Socrates project developed the concept and demonstrated the feasibility of using cellular radio to exchange digital traffic information between control centers and equipped vehicles, in order to provide dynamic route guidance and a range of other applications of advanced transport telematics (ATT). In DRIVE 2, there are three pilot projects taking forward the Socrates concept into practical implementations. A fourth DRIVE 2 project, the Socrates Kernel project, serves as a focus for all Socrates developments and a method for coordinating the progress being made in each of the pilot projects. The progress in each of the pilot projects is described, and the scope of the Kernel project is presented. This includes the investigation of the commercial case for implementing Socrates systems.

The Socrates projects-progress towards a pan-European driver information system
IEE Colloquium on Prometheus and Drive, 1992Co-Authors: I. CatlingAbstract:The author briefly outlines the Socrates (system of cellular radio for traffic efficiency and safety) concept and introducing the four projects connected with the DRIVE 2 programme which are actively implementing the results of the DRIVE 1 Socrates project. This demonstrated that the concepts for a Socrates system were soundly based and that there were no technical obstacles in the path of full Socrates implementation. The main objective of each of the Socrates pilot projects is to speed up the process towards widespread commercial implementation of Socrates systems throughout Europe.

Socrates on the emotions
PLATO JOURNAL, 2015Co-Authors: Thomas C Brickhouse, Nicholas D SmithAbstract:In Plato’s Protagoras, Socrates clearly indicates that he is a cognitivist about the emotions—in other words, he believes that emotions are in some way constituted by cognitive states. It is perhaps because of this that some scholars have claimed that Socrates believes that the only way to change how others feel about things is to engage them in rational discourse, since that is the only way, such scholars claim, to change another’s beliefs. But in this paper we show that Socrates is also responsive to, and has various non-rational strategies for dealing with, the many ways in which emotions can cloud our judgment and lead us into poor decision-making. We provide an account of how Socrates can consistently be a cognitivist about emotion and also have more than purely rational strategies for dealing with emotions. http://dx.doi.org/10.14195/2183-4105_15_1

Socrates and the Unity of the Virtues
The Journal of Ethics, 1997Co-Authors: Thomas C Brickhouse, Nicholas D SmithAbstract:In the Protagoras, Socrates argues that each of the virtue-terms refers to “one thing” (eν: 333b4). But in the Laches (190c8–d5, 199e6–7), Socrates claims that courage is a proper part of virtue as a whole, and at Euthyphro 11e7–12e2, Socrates says that piety is a proper part of justice. But A cannot be both identical to B and also a proper part of B – piety cannot be both identical to justice and also a proper part of justice. In this paper we argue that coherent sense can be made of Socrates' apparently conflicting claims. The key to understanding Socrates' position, we will argue, is the central role of wisdom among the virtues. It is through the relationship of each virtue to wisdom that each may be said to be the same as all of the others, on the one hand, and also that some virtues may be regarded as proper parts of some other virtues, or as proper parts of virtue in general, on the other.

plato s Socrates
1994Co-Authors: Thomas C Brickhouse, Nicholas D SmithAbstract:Socrates, as he is portrayed in Plato's early dialogues, remains one of the most controversial figures in the history of philosophy. This book concerns six of the most vexing and often discussed features of Plato's portrayal: Socrates' methodology, epistemology, psychology, ethics, politics, and religion. Brickhouse and Smith cast new light on Plato's early dialogues by providing novel analyses of many of the doctrines and practices for which Socrates is best known. Included are discussions of Socrates' moral method, his profession of ignorance, his denial of akrasia, as well as his views about the relationship between virtue and happiness, the authority of the State, and the epistemic status of his daimonion. By revealing the many interconnections among Socrates' views on a wide variety of topics, this book demonstrates both the richness and the remarkable coherence of the philosophy of Plato's Socrates.
