Abstract:

This document describes the Demonstration Plan for the FRATIS system. The demonstration component of this task will serve to test the technical feasibility of the FRATIS prototype while also facilitating the collection of baseline and performance data related to the operation and impact of the system. The FRATIS prototype in Dallas will consist of three components: Optimization algorithm, Terminal wait time, and route specific navigation/traffic/weather. This document describes the experimental design plan for each FRATIS component.
