Queue management schemes at the routers and congestion avoidance schemes at the end points cooperate to provide good congestion solutions in computer networks. While queue management schemes are still being developed, research on congestion avoidance has come a long way to serve the bandwidth requirement of the networks. Because of considerable lack on the evaluation research work, there is no ...

Highway management systems are used to improve safety and driving comfort on highways by using control strategies and providing information and warnings to drivers. They use several strategies starting from speed and lane management, through incident detection and warning systems, ramp metering, weather information up to, for example, informing drivers about alternative roads. This paper provid...

Improving maritime operations planning and scheduling can play an important role in enhancing the sector’s performance competitiveness. In this context, accurate ship speed estimation is crucial to ensure efficient traffic management. This study addresses problem of prediction from a Maritime Vessel Services perspective area Saint Lawrence Seaway. The challenge build real-time predictive model ...

Most of the existing traffic control strategies implemented in many countries in the world tend to aim only at improving the efficiency of traffic output. However, decreased the delays and safer traffic are also important outcomes of traffic control. In this study, a dynamic algorithm for variable speed-limit control at toll booth zones is presented that can take full advantage of its dynamic f...

SIR—The concept of ‘frailty’ has been used to identify older adults at increased risk for disability [1, 2]. A major obstacle to developing primary prevention strategies for frailty is the lack of clinical markers of early frailty, especially among high functioning older adults. The Physical Performance Battery (PPB) has been reported to predict disability in older adults [3, 4], but its associ...
