Fast growing population, excessive expansion of cities, and dominance of automobile in urban life have troubled cities with complicated traffic problems. In many parts of the world, transport network development has always been considered as a solution for this problem. Apparently, one-dimensional ‘traffic solutions’ would never thoroughly bring best results as the city and its problems are com...

There is growing interest among automobile engineers and wireless communications researchers in the concept of a Vehicular Ad-hoc NETwork (VANET). Each motor vehicle on the road today provides a natural platform for mobile communications. When equipped with suitable on-board device, the population of vehicles in a busy area becomes a wireless network capable of relaying signals across considera...

I tems integration of many emerging technologies to effectively address the needs, both present and future, of the nation’s roadway complex. Here, an introduction to and brief history of IVHS is presented. Then, a more detailed overview of Automated Highway Systems (AHS), the part of IVHS of most interest to control engineers, is given. One focus is on various control issues that must be confro...

regulated by the corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standards, established during the energy crises of the 1970s. Calls to increase fuel economy are usually met by a fierce debate on the effectiveness of the CAFE standards and their impact on highway safety. A seminal study of the link between CAFE and traffic fatalities was published by R. W. Crandall and J. D. Graham in 1989. They linked h...
