Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is an emerging concept which has been utilised to improve efficiency and sustainability of existing transportation systems. Short term traffic flow forecasting, the process of predicting future traffic conditions based on historical and realtime observations is an essential aspect of ITS. The existing well-known algorithms used for short-term traffic for...

The necessity of network traffic monitoring and analysis is growing dramatically with increasing network usage demands from individual users as well as business communities. Most network traffic monitoring and analysis systems are based on flows. One key asset with these systems is to compress a significant amount of packet data into flows. However, the compression ratio is highly variable in t...

A GROWING NUMBER OF COMputer-vision systems have emerged for traffic analysis and control. Increased traffic, along with steady efforts to improve driver security, have encouraged the development of sophisticated video-based systems, providing statistical measures of traffic flow for actual traffic information on variable message signs. Investigations show that VMS reduce traffic jams, thus min...

Using computer simulations, we show that metastable states still occur in two-lane traffic models with slow to start rules. However, these metastable states no longer exist in systems where aggressive drivers (which do not look back before changing lanes) are present. Indeed, the presence of only one aggressive driver in the circuit, triggers the breakdown of the high flow states. In these syst...

Traffic models play an important role in both today’s traffic research and in many traffic applications such as traffic flow prediction, incident detection and traffic control. In this paper we concentrate on motorway traffic models for traffic control. First, we discuss why traffic control is important for both practice and research. We also argue why a model-based approach to traffic control ...

Large-scale Modeling and Optimization of En Route Air Traffic Flow by Dengfeng Sun Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering-Civil and Environmental Engineering University of California at Berkeley Professor Alexandre M. Bayen, Chair The research presented in this dissertation is motivated by the need for balancing the increasing demand and limited capacity of the National Airspace System (NAS), and ...

Reliable traffic information is essential for the development of efficient traffic control and management strategies for traffic networks in advanced traffic management systems (ATMS) and advanced traveler information systems (ATIS). Real-time traffic information is utilized for various purposes such as dynamic route guidance, incident detection, and control of variable message signs. Traffic i...

This paper demonstrates the requirement of smart tolling systems for smart highway. In smart highway operators and drivers would be able to see in real time the information of traffic. The smart highway is next generation road aimed at Congestion Free, Stop Free and Accident Free through traffic information services. This study defines requirements and functions for development of smart tolling...

Traffic jam in Malaysia is a huge and complicated problem nowadays, due to the rapid increase in the demand for transportation. This causes a longer vehicle travel times, increased energy consumption, growing environmental pollution, reduced traffic safety, and a decrease in the efficiency of transportation infrastructure. Hence, controlling the flow of traffic has become a very important issue...
