Abstract: This paper demonstrates the feasibility of an advanced concept of traffic control for congested urban arterials in an intelligent transportation system (ITS) setting. The core idea of the new concept is to integrate the ...

Abstract: Genetic algorithms (GAs) can be the tool of choice especially for optimizing combinatorial and complex problems in transport and infrastructure systems such as traffic signal control, pavement rehabilitation and design, ...

Abstract: Analytical macroscopic models are presented to quantify delay at signalized intersections for extended control periods (multiple cycles) attributable to downstream time-variable congestion. Each of the models consists of ...
