چکیده

This paper presents a new algorithm for computing timedistance transformations of a road network based on modified multidimensional scaling. The algorithm is designed to perform on a realworld road network, and provides alternative visualisations for travel time cognition and route planning. Several extensions are explored, including user-centric and route-centric road map transformations. Our implementation of the algorithm can be applied to any locality where travel time road network data is available. Here, it is illustrated on road network data for a rural region in Ireland. Limitations of the proposed algorithm are examined, and potential solutions are discussed.

Location-centric storage for safety warning based on roadway sensor networks

We propose a novel vision for roadway safety warning based on sensor networks, aiming at providing user-friendly zero-delay safety warnings to motorists. Our idea leverages the advanced sensing, networking and storage technologies. Roadway sensors detect events and store event records at multiple designated locations along the against traffic direction, such that the passing-by drivers can be a...

DISKs: A System for Distributed Spatial Group Keyword Search on Road Networks

Query (e.g., shortest path) on road networks has been extensively studied. Although most of the existing query processing approaches are designed for centralized environments, there is a growing need to handle queries on road networks in distributed environments due to the increasing query workload and the challenge of querying large networks. In this demonstration, we showcase a distributed sy...

Centric connectivity index by shell matrices

Relative centricity RC values of vertices/atoms are calculated within the Distance Detour and Cluj-Distance criteria on their corresponding Shell transforms. The vertex RC distribution in a molecular graph gives atom equivalence classes, useful in interpretation of NMR spectra. Timed by vertex valences, RC provides a new index, called Centric Connectivity CC, which can be useful in the topologi...

User-Centric Mobility Management Architecture for Vehicular Networks

Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is a subclass of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks which provides wireless communication among vehicles as well as between vehicles and roadside devices. Providing safety and user comfort for drivers and passengers is a promising goal of these networks. Some user applications need a connection to internet through gateways which are in the road side. This connection could g...

Evaluation of the Effects of Maintenance and Rehabilitation Projects on Road User Costs via HDM-4 Software

Rapid growth in a number of vehicles on roadways accelerates pavement deterioration trends. Pavement inefficiency in carrying the applied load from passing vehicles results in spending significant costs on continues Maintenance and Rehabilitation (M&R) treatments. Lane closure owing to the implementation of M&R operations incurs enormous costs on road users. The research aimed to calculate, and...
