guiding vehicles to their destination under dynamic traffic conditions is an important topic in the field of intelligent transportation systems (its). nowadays, many complex systems can be controlled by using multi agent systems. adaptation with the current condition is an important feature of the agents. in this research, formulation of dynamic guidance for vehicles has been investigated based...

Around the world, particularly in North America and Australia, urban sprawl combined with low density suburban development has caused serious accessibility and mobility problems, especially for those who do not own a motor vehicle or have access to public transportation services. Sustainable urban and transportation development is seen crucial in solving transportation disadvantage problems in ...

The ceaselessly increasing number of trips on urban highways and major arterial roads have caused serious congestion and air pollution problems. Thus many transportation agencies have persevered in their efforts not only to alleviate such problems, but also to minimize social costs. However, the complex nature of such problems has strongly hindered transportation agencies’ ability to consider a...

In these days, remotely sensed imagery has been widely used for GIS-T (Geographic Information Systems for Transportation). As for this approach, topological measure and spatial metrics of transportation network structure such as road layer can be considered as one of important factors in urban transportation analysis. Related to this measure, it is known that the connectivity such as alpha inde...

Large cities in Asia have unique transport problems. Traffic management alone is limited in solving the problems of urban transportation, and introduction of guided transit systems separate from ground-level transport is essential in solving these problems. This article describes some of the recent measures, including finance resources, taken to solve Asian urban transportation problems. The ad...
