“…Related work that is presented here is about different use cases that the concept of Hot-Desking is used for and although they can be seen as somewhat similar to our work (by various criteria that are explained below) they are still remote enough. It is worth mentioning that the definition of Hot-Desking is somewhat vague and therefore some conflicts can often occur among different authors [19,20]. However, the term 'hot desks' is most commonly used in order to express 'desks that can be used each time by a different user' and this is the definition that we will use in this work.…”

According to the innovation in services theory any substitution or addition of characteristics to a service is considered as incremental innovation with the objective of improving the final client's utility. Moreover by service relationship, it is meant the establishment of relationships between the client and the provider with the objective of producing the final product. In the light of this theory stations are here conceived as a set of services and the added characteristics as temporary offices designed inside and around High Speed Rail stations. Therefore, the traditional concept of a station as a node changes since stations can be also considered as workplaces. The objective of this contribution is to identify the characteristics of the clients renting temporary offices and the role of High Speed Rail and more generally transport in this respect. A survey was employed, interviewing clients renting flexible offices inside the Garibaldi station in Naples in Italy. Data were collected concerning the clients' socioeconomic characteristics, the transport mode chosen to reach these offices and the services used.

“…The UK Labour Force Survey has included questions regarding homeworking on an annual basis which, since 1997, have captured finer details of definition. Felstead (2012) provides the most complete examination of available data over time and change from 1997 to 2010 is shown in Table 3. In terms of absolute numbers, homeworking remains a minority practice.…”

2014 marks the 25 th birthday of the World Wide Web. We have seen some remarkable developments as part of the digital age revolution in the last quarter of a century. These have taken place concurrently with a motor age that is possibly past its prime. A number of major motor manufacturers have faced disappointing sales or financial crisis alongside several countries seeing a halt to the historic trend of growing car use. The co-existence of the motor age and the digital age prompts this paper to consider the hypothesis that society is undergoing a fundamental transition from a regime of automobility to something significantly different. The paper considers what has characterized the motor age and proceeds to examine the digital revolution and how this is changing people's opportunity to access people, goods services and opportunities. The range of interactions between the motor age and the digital age are addressed, underlining the difficulty in establishing the net consequence of one for the other. The new debates concerning 'peak car' are considered in which the digital age is identified as potentially one key factor responsible for observed changes in car use. The paper then focuses upon a socio-technical conceptualization of society known as the Multi-Layer Perspective to examine its hypothesis. The hypothesis remains neither supported nor not supported. Transport's future in the digital age is uncertain and the paper sets out some views on resulting policy considerations and research needs.
