There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Maps of Manhattan show the effect of hacking and stranding 20 percent of vehicles on the streets at varying times of day. The fainter the street, the slower the traffic. Streets completely faded out are gridlocked to a standstill, and very faint streets are no longer practically usable. The simulations are conservative as they do not factor in spillover traffic from blocked roads, delivery trucks, and normal traffic obstructions. Credit: Yunker lab
