N2  - This paper discusses the basic parameters of resilience engineering and analyses transportation systems, at a high level, in order to identify the key variables for a holistic design of transportation systems that shall include the parameter of resilience. Critical factors in the context of resilience engineering are identified in transportation systems, in order to determine the features and properties that are of prior significance to the system's ability to recover from sudden and severe stresses in a dynamic environment. Based on the review of the respective literature, this paper concludes with a framework for resilience engineering of transportation systems.<p />
