Abstract:

Systematic methodological approaches to overall traffic management from both short-term (real-time) and long-term (planning) perspectives have been developed. The approach embodies formulation and solution of interrelated mathematical problems from operations research and optimal control theory, including: 1) selection of traffic models, both static and dynamic; 2) optimal (steady-state) traffic assignment; 3) dynamic ramp-metering control algorithm design; and 4) traffic surveillance data-processing algorithm design. Theoretical results and designs are evaluated using a variety of computer simulation tools. Practical implementation of these procedures for traffic management are addressed in all phases of the research through decomposition and decentralizaiton techniques.
