Nowadays, many cities face increasing traffic demand and in conclusion, traffic congestion often becomes chronic and traffic accidents accumulate. One of the main instruments to control the traffic in the road network are traffic signals and they are established to cope with these problems. However, traffic signals are subject to changing requirements and conflicts of goals. In addition, questi...

Computer vision-based traffic flow monitoring is of major importance for enforcing traffic management policies. Information such as the number of vehicles passing on a road per time unit, or vehicles' turning rates at intersections are exploited by traffic management policies to supervise traffic-light timings. Computer vision-based traffic flow monitoring requires extraction of moving vehicles...

Network services which handle large-scale traffic require stability and security for the network. Traffic management for efficient traffic processing is also becoming an important issue. NFV (Network Function Virtualization) architecture has been developed to provide a flexible and effective framework to handle this issue and SFC (Service Function Chaining) technique which can configure a singl...

Traffic management refers to controlling how much traffic traverses each path in a network. On the Internet today, end hosts run congestion control to adapt sending rates, routers route traffic on shortest paths based on link weights, and operators tune link weights to direct traffic away from heavily-loaded links. This dissertation performs a top-down redesign of traffic management to support ...

As part of the wider debate over net neutrality, traffic management practices of Internet Service Providers have become an issue of public concern. An increasing number of vendors offer network equipment to implement a variety of traffic management practices using packet classification and packet filtering. The Federal Communications Commission has asked for public input on whether such traffic...

ent types and numbers of antennas depending on the required coverage range, direction, and throughput. The CPEs are often engineered differently for indoor and outdoor uses and line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions. ITS applications rely on a huge amount of real-time traffic information, which needs a fast, reliable, and easily accessible communication network. WiMAX holds...
