Estimation of emissions and energy consumption using MOVES (Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator) model is cumbersome for large-scale network and intractable for real-time analysis and control purposes. This project aims to develop a simplified method for estimation of emissions and energy consumption in large-scale networks using the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD). In the proposed method, the network will be divided up into a number of homogeneous regions and the emissions and energy consumption from all links inside each region will be approximated by MFD-based variables in the MOVES model. Later, the developed method will be used to propose real-time traffic control policies optimizing the network-wide emissions and energy consumption.

The total size of the zip file is 323 MB. The file extension .png is commonly used for images in Portable Network Graphics file format. PNG is a bitmap graphics format similar to GIF, that uses image compression mainly for web purposes (for more information on .png files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/png-file-extension). The .gif file extension is standard bit-mapped graphics file format very widespread on Internet, which was originally developed by CompuServe in the late 1980s. Files with the GIF extension can be viewed through the local photo viewing software or in the web browser. The Portable Document Format (PDF) file format was developed by Adobe Systems and represents two-dimensional documents in a device-independent and resolution-independent format. There are PDF readers available on many platforms, such as Xpdf, Foxit, and Adobe's own Adobe Acrobat Reader. PDF readers/viewers or online services for basic functions are generally free (for more information on .pdf files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/pdf-file-extension). The .mp4 file extension is used mainly for the MPEG-4 multimedia file format. These .mp4 files are in a container format defined in the Systems Part of the MPEG-4 standard (ISO 14496-1). The .mp4 files support all kinds of multimedia content (multiple audio streams, video streams, subtitle streams, pictures) and advanced content (called "Rich Media" or "BIFS") like 2D and 3D graphics, user interactivity, DVD-like menus. The MP4 file format is also streamable (for more information on .mp4 files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/mp4-file-extension). The .enl file type is a bibliographic file format associated with EndNote bibliographic reference software (for more information on .enl files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/enl-file-extension). The .xlsx and .xls file types are Microsoft Excel files, which can be opened with Excel, and other free available spreadsheet software, such as OpenRefine. The .csv, Comma Separated Value, file is a simple format that is designed for a database table and supported by many applications. The .csv file is often used for moving tabular data between two different computer programs, due to its open format. The most common software used to open .csv files are Microsoft Excel and RecordEditor, (for more information on .csv files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/csv-file-extension). The .xml file type is commonly used for files written in Extensible Markup Language (XML). XML is a human-readable, machine-understandable, general syntax for describing hierarchical data, applicable to a wide range of applications (for more information on .xml files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/xml-file-extension). The .jpg file extension is associated with JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) file format. JPEG is a lossy image compression algorithm that significantly reduces the file size of the original image at the cost of quality. The higher the compression ratio the lower the quality of the .jpg file (for more information on .jpg files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/jpg-file-extension). The .vsdx file type is a Microsoft Visio drawing saved in OPC/XML format and compressed with ZIP compression (for more information on .vsdx files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/vsdx-file-extension). The .ris file format is a bibliographic file format meant to exchange citation information between bibliographic software. The .ris file is an ASCII text file that contains two letters, two spaces, a dash, a space and the reference for each citation (for more information on .ris files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/ris-file-extension). The .docx file is a Microsoft Word file, which can be opened with Word and other free word processor programs, such as Kingsoft Writer, OpenOffice Writer, Apache OpenOffice, and ONLYOFFICE. The .frm file type are usually associated with MySQL as database metadata file. Each .frm file has the same name as the SQL table (for more information on .frm files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/frm-file-extension). The .myd file type is a MySQL database data file that contains table data. These are used in conjunction with .frm and .myi files to create document data tables (for more information on .myd files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/myd-file-extension). The .myi file format is a MySQL index file for data tables. The files are used in conjunction with .frm and .myi files to create data tables (for more information on .myi files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/myi-file-extension). The .opt file format is a MySQL file containing various data used by MySQL and compatible tools (for more information on .opt files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/opt-file-extension). The .mat file extension is associated with Ox. Ox is an object-oriented statistical system. At its core is a powerful matrix language, which is complemented by a comprehensive statistical library (for more information on the .mat file type and associated software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/mat-file-extension-ox-object-oriented-matrix-programming-language-matrix). File extension .m is associated with the Objective-C, a general-purpose, object-oriented programming language based on Smalltalk language developed by Apple, Inc (for more information on the .m file type and associated software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/m-file-extension). The .txt file type is a common text file, which can be opened with a basic text editor.
