The general objective of this project is to evaluate the potential benefits of Advanced Traveler Information Systems and Advanced Traffic Management Systems on the Smart Corridor. This report describes Phase 1 of the project in which the INTEGRATION traffic simulation model is used to help...

The focus of this research effort is the study of driver behavior in the presence of real-time traffic condition information. The methodology adapted for this research involves three parts: development of a theoretical model for driver behavior under Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS),...

The objectives of this study were to select a traffic assignment and simulation model, apply that model to an integrated freeway/arterial network such as the Smart Corridor in Los Angeles, California, and, using the model, make an initial evaluation of in-vehicle information systems and the...

This report focuses on the design of controllers for platoons of automatically-controlled automobiles using COSPAN computer language. In order to ensure that it is safe to initiate a maneuver, the platoon layer controller enters into a negotiation with its neighbors and is implemented as a...
