The rapid proliferation of Global Position Service (GPS) devices and mounting number of traffic monitoring systems employed by municipalities have opened the door for advanced traffic control and personalized route planning. Most state of the art traffic management and information systems focus on data analysis, and very little has been done in the sense of prediction. In this article, we devis...

Currently, flow-level anomaly detection systems get widely deployed in ISP networks to provide fast detection in case of large-scale anomalies such as worms, denial-of-service attacks, or flash crowds. Unfortunately, benchmark evaluation traces which would allow for systematically evaluating these anomaly detection systems are not available to neither research nor industry. In this paper, we id...

Accurate estimation of saturation flow rate is a prerequisite for accurate estimation of level of service and delays of signalized intersections. Saturation flow rate of intersections depends on many factors, including traffic behavior and culture. One of the important problems of traffic behavior in Iran is the violation of law at the physical region of intersections. The main purpose of this ...

The urban traffic jams are daily problem in large cities. Urban Traffic Control (UTC) Systems aim to solve this problem. Because of spatial distribution of urban traffic, multiagent systems are suitable framework for implementation of UTC. In this paper, we present a new abstract model of traffic flow that and explain how a reactive control agent can be built based on it.

Traffic flow micro simulations are popular for the planning of transport problems due to their temporal and spatial resolution. Cellular automata (CA) model are mathematical idealizations of physical systems in which space and time are discrete, and physical quantities take on a finite set of discrete values .In this paper , we are exploring the usefulness of CA to traffic flow modeling. A CA m...

At diverging junctions in vehicular traffic networks, congestion on one outgoing link may impede traffic flow to other outgoing links. This phenomenon is referred to as the first-in-first-out (FIFO) property. Traffic network models that do not include the FIFO property result in monotone dynamics for which powerful analysis techniques exist. This note shows that a large class of FIFO network mo...

short-term prediction of traffic flow is central to alleviating congestion and controlling the negative impacts of environmental pollution resulting from vehicle emissions on both inter- and intra-urban highways. the strong need to monitor and control congestion time and costs for metropolis in developing countries has therefore motivated the current study. this paper establishes the applicatio...

This paper aims to evaluate and compare the effects of different methods of ramp metering on the operational conditions of traffic flow at three levels: the network level (including the freeway and its connected ramps), the entrance ramp, and the upstream segment of the entrance. To achieve this aim, one of the most important urban freeways in the metropolis of Isfahan was selected. The traffic...
