regulations of use of social networks, as one of the key components in these networks, serve an important role in controlling the flow of traffic. the study of the harmonization of these terms and regulations can be a significant step to avoid congestion and (users’) rejection in the network. harmonization of traffic control regulations (tcr) among social networks is one of the best solutions...

The objective of Air Traffic Flow Management is to maintain safe and efficient use of airspace and airports by regulating the flow of traffic. In this paper, we introduce a single-valued metric for post-operatively rating the performance of achieved traffic flow against targeted traffic flow. We provide variations on the metric, one of which factors out stochastic conditions upon which a plan i...

This paper addresses the problem of freeway traffic flow estimation. The freeway is considered as a network of components representing different freeway stretches called segments. The evolution of the traffic in a segment is modelled as a dynamic stochastic system, influenced by states of neighbour segments. Measurements are received only at boundaries between some segments and averaged within ...

The growing use of powered two wheelers (PTWs), coupled with their unique moving behaviors, has considerably influenced the overall traffic characteristics, requiring new approaches to traffic management and monitoring strategies. The present paper studies the effect of two-wheelers traffic on adaptive traffic signal control (ASC) and the methods to optimize the control plan for traffic flow co...

The air transportation system infrastructure is comprised of communication, navigation, surveillance, and air traffic management systems, and is known as the National Airspace System. This chapter describes the current very high-frequency and high-frequency modes of communication, very high-frequency omnidirectional range, distance measuring equipment, and instrument landing systems for navigat...

In recent years due to improvements of technology within automobile industry, design process of advanced driver assistance systems for collision avoidance and traffic management has been investigated in both academics and industrial levels. Detection of traffic signs is an effective method to reach the mentioned aims. In this paper a new intelligent driver assistance system based on traffic...

In this paper we present a hybrid systems approach to freeway traffic control. We introduce a model of traffic which includes both vehicles and voids, where a void is a unit of space greater than the normal following distance between vehicles. The introduction of voids allows us to successfully model traffic flow via a wave model. We discuss the fundamentals of the Multiple Agent Hybrid Control...

We present a novel method for the synthesis and animation of realistic traffic flows on large-scale road networks. Our technique is based on a continuum model of traffic flow we extend to correctly handle lane changes and merges, as well as traffic behaviors due to changes in speed limit. We demonstrate how our method can be applied to the animation of many vehicles in a large-scale traffic net...

Recently, since the traffic is increasing every year, the problems of traffic jam and accidents, and so on, are increasing , it is required that the ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) provides the drivers with the information for smooth and safety drive. As one of ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) techniques, the studies on the traffic flow measurement by image processing have been proposed ...
