This paper presents a microscopic simulation based estimation of the spatio-temporal change in air pollution levels as a result of electronic toll collection (ETC) deployment in New Jersey Turnpike (NJTPK), a large-scale traffic network. Other important features of this paper are the (1) disaggregate spatial estimation and analysis of the emissions instead of aggregate system-wide estimations, ...

The main objective of the present study is to prepare an algorithm for choice lane causing minimum delay based on drivers’ perception using a Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) method. TODIM (Portuguese acronym Interactive Decision-Making) prospect theory. effect human behavior at toll plaza studied user survey. data required collected by pictorial survey plaza, nearby petrol pumps, and hote...

<p>In 1973, in the midst of an economic downturn, New York City´s waterfront was envisioned as enterprise for urban renewal. This paper reflects on interplay among a set actors which key launching more open, accessible, diverse and thrilling city´s edge. The intersecting condition corporate capitalism, real estate, political interests talented design illustrates particularly instrumental ...

Due to the inherent discrete nature of sensing, interpolation is a key activity in sensing. Interpolation in urban computing faces an unprecedented inference issue that was not present in large scale traditional sensing environments. Obstacles such as buildings and walls are prevalent in urban sensing, and it is important to consider them in urban sensing interpolation. This paper introduces an...

This study proposes a process simulation-based approach to traffic jam issues in toll plaza with ETC gates in expressways. Describing overview of ETC system around the world as well as in Japan, the paper clarifies the issue of traffic jams, which occurs in toll plaza of expressways in Japan. Two kinds of solution to traffic jam issues are studied in this research. One is to determine the appro...

En 1989, la secretaría de planeamiento, a través del arquitecto Rubén Palumbo, encargó el proyecto para una Plaza. La propuesta demuestra un control y precisión que solo se puede contrastar en visita. Las escaleras rampas parecen flotar planta prescinde casi todas las preexistencias. Los árboles, los edificios contiguos graciosa topografía Rosario, previa barranca, dan por descontados son base ...

The number of sequenced genomes of representatives within the green lineage is rapidly increasing. Consequently, comparative sequence analysis has significantly altered our view on the complexity of genome organization, gene function, and regulatory pathways. To explore all this genome information, a centralized infrastructure is required where all data generated by different sequencing initiat...

This paper describes how a combined queueing and simulation study was successfully executed for the design of a toll plaza. The objectives of the study were twofold: • to configure the types of toll booths with multiple payment functionalities (cash, credit cards, and electronic payment). • to determine the number of toll booths for each type. The model was also used to validate the spacing, sa...
