Minimization of Traffic Congestion by Using Queueing Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
Traffic congestion is a phenomenon of increased disruption of the traffic movement. In India, with increasing vehicles on the road, traffic congestion is quickly increasing. Much has been written about the queueing theory technique and its powerful application. This paper is an attempt to analyze the contribution and application of queueing theory in the field of traffic congestion. For this Bhagwanpur Golambar intersection of Muzaffarpur city (located in India) is chosen. The paper summarizes a range of queueing theory results in the following areas: waiting time, utilization analysis and system design. The traffic congestion follows a repeatable pattern during the day, and the locals accept it as a daily routine.

Congestion Pricing: A Parking Queue Model
Drivers in urban neighborhoods who patrol streets, seeking inexpensive on-street parking create a significant fraction of measured traffic congestion. The pool of drivers patrolling at any time can be modeled as a queue, where ‘queue service’ is the act of parking in a recently vacated parking space and queue discipline is SIRO – Service In Random Order. We develop a queueing model of such driv...
متن کاملModeling Traffic Flow Interrupted by Incidents using Queueing Models
A steady-state M/M/C queueing system under batch service interruptions is introduced to model the traffic flow on a roadway link subject to incidents. When a traffic incident happens, either all lanes or part of a lane is closed to the traffic. As such, we model these interruptions either as complete service disruptions where none of the servers work or partial failures where servers work at a ...
متن کاملIdentifying and Analyzing Stop and Go Traffic based on Asymmetric Theory of Driving Behavior in Acceleration and Deceleration
Stop and go traffic that leads to oscillate traffic flow frequently is observed on congestion flow. Unexpected reasons such as lane – changing maneuvers, lower speeds of leader vehicle and moving bottleneck cause stop and go traffic and amplifying delay and environment impacts. Stop and go traffic exactly can’t be modeled by traffic models, and also car following models based on kinematic flow ...
متن کاملStudy on the Calculation Models of Bus Delay at Bays Using Queueing Theory and Markov Chain
Traffic congestion at bus bays has decreased the service efficiency of public transit seriously in China, so it is crucial to systematically study its theory and methods. However, the existing studies lack theoretical model on computing efficiency. Therefore, the calculation models of bus delay at bays are studied. Firstly, the process that buses are delayed at bays is analyzed, and it was foun...
متن کاملNetwork Performance Optimization Using a Queueing Network Model
Abstract In this paper, we present and analyze a new aggregate model of urban traffic. The main challenge in the formulation of an aggregate model is to analytically grasp the correlation between the different components of the network while maintaining a tractable model. This correlation explains congestion effects and quantifies their overall network impact. Our analytic queueing network mode...
