Traffic models developed for control include first order LWR model and second order models. The first order model is essentially density dynamics which states the conservation of the number of vehicles in a section of highway. Most second order models are essentially a speed dynamics coupled with the first order density dynamics. There are several second order models but most are for explaining...

A general framework for the design of multivariable control systems subject to hard constraints on each control channel is developed. The design procedure is based on the H∞ Loop Shaping and relies on the calculation of the maximum possible control amplitude for a class of reference signals, bounded in amplitude and rate. Special attention is given to adjustment of the design weights in order t...

Network traffic models have evolved significantly over the lifetime of the Internet. The earliest models were largely Poisson-based, designed for ease of analysis. The discovery of traffic self-similarity and long-range dependence required significant changes to traffic models. We examine this evolution from the early models, through the discovery of self-similarity, to the modern systems that ...
