Grid computing is becoming the preferred basis for large-scale distributed computing and Internet applications. ShanghaiGrid launched in Shanghai, China is a grid infrastructure that aggregates several heterogeneous supercomputers, data centers and other applications scattered in different organizations in Shanghai. One of the major focuses in the ShanghaiGrid project is research and developmen...

The usability and effectiveness of traffic management and traffic control systems greatly depend on its ability of reacting upon traffic patterns and permutations. In this research we investigate the applicability of autonomous intelligent agents in Urban Traffic Control (UTC), and why these Artificial Intelligent strategies are useful in UTC. Designing, implementing, optimising and adjusting U...

One of the most critical issues in modern cities is transportation management. Issues that are encountered in this regard, such as traffic congestion, high accidents rates and air pollution etc., have pushed the use of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies in order to facilitate the traffic management. Seen in this perspective, this paper brings forward a road traffic management ...

nowadays, because of the growing numbers of vehicles on streets and roads, the use of intelligent controlsystems to improve driving safety and health has become a necessity. to design and implement suchcontrol systems, having information about traffic light colors is essential. there are the wide variety oftraffic lights in terms of light intensity and color. therefore it seems that design and ...

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are increasingly used in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) applications, especially in dynamic management of signalized intersections. This paper proposes a Bluetooth network architecture in order to monitor vehicular traffic flows near to a traffic light. The proposed architecture is characterized by a novel algorithm in order to determine green times and ...
