Urban traffic congestion is one of the most severe problems of everyday life in Metropolitan areas. In an effort to deal with this problem, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) technologies have concentrated in recent years on dealing with urban congestion. One of the most critical aspects of ITS success is the provision of accurate real-time information and short-term predictions of traffi...

This study presents an integrated model and its solution algorithm for freeway corridor control during incident management. With a parallel arterial as the detour route, the proposed model aims to produce the optimal diversion rates from the freeway mainline to relieve the congestion at the incident segment, and concurrently adjust signal timings at the arterial intersections to best accommodat...

Detecting the weak and strong congestion statuses of decision-making units (DMUs) measuring them via data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an important issue that has been discussed in several studies with different views. The efficiency frontier a concept derived from underlying production possibility set (PPS), related to them. Still, researchers have defined for each DMU many previous ignored l...

Mobile ad hoc network congestion control is a significant problem. Standard mechanism for congestion control (TCP), the ability to run certain features of a wireless network, several mutations are not common. In particular, the enormous changes in the network topology and the joint nature of the wireless network. It also creates significant challenges in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET), density ...

in the deregulated power systems, transmission congestion is one of the significant and main problems of the electrical networks which can cause incremental cost in the energy. this problem has resulted to new challenging issues in different parts of power systems which there was not in the traditional systems or at least had very little importance. transmission congestion happens when the maxi...
