Dimensioning a Traffic Control Device in an ATM Network

It is well known that a single Leaky Bucket cannot control all characteristics of a source. Especially, controlling burst length and mean rate may be incompatible, while a poor control of any of these characteristics impacts directly networks performances. Given an ATM source, this paper addresses this issue and gives a general approach to choose the \best" Leaky Bucket parameters; the optimali...

Assessing Behavioral Patterns of Motorcyclists Based on Traffic Control Device at City Intersections by Classification Tree Algorithm

According to the forensic statistics, in Iran, 26 percent of those killed in traffic accidents are motorcyclists in recent years. Thus, it is necessary to investigate the causes of motorcycle accidents because of the high number of motorcyclist casualties. Motorcyclists' dangerous behaviors are among the causes of events that are discussed in this study. Traffic signs have the important role of...

Simulation of the Admittance Control Based Haptic Interface Device

Traffic control

Proteins of the p120 family have been implicated in the regulation of cadherin-based cell adhesion, but their relative importance in this process and their mechanism of action have remained less clear. Three papers in this issue suggest that p120 plays a key role in maintaining normal levels of cadherin in mammalian cells, and that it may do so by regulating cadherin trafficking (Chen et al., 2...

Ergonomic Guidelines for Traffic Sign Design Increase Sign Comprehension

OBJECTIVE This research directly tests the relationship between comprehension probability of highway signs and the extent to which they comply with three ergonomic principles of design: sign-content compatibility, familiarity, and standardization. BACKGROUND A recent study that evaluated comprehension of traffic signs in four different countries showed that comprehension level varies widely a...
