The paper develops a short-term space-time traffic flow forecasting strategy integrating the empirical-based seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) time-series forecasting technique with the theoretical-based first-order macroscopic traffic flow model-cell transmission model....

Many studies focused on the development of crash prediction models have resulted in aggregate crash prediction models to quantify the safety effects of geometric, traffic, and environmental factors on the expected number of total, fatal, injury, and/or property damage crashes at specific...

This paper studies the effects of back step movement and update rule on the traffic congestion properties of mobile objects, using computer simulation. The mobile objects are modeled as four-way-biased random walkers in two-dimensional square lattice. It is found that there is always a phase...

Traffic congestion in point-to-point movement is studied using four simple traffic models. The four traffic models studied are movement between randomly chosen starting and destination points, back and forth movement between same two points, movement with preference of horizontal and vertical...

This paper studies congestion avoidance in a simple two-dimensional traffic system, using computer simulation. The mobile objects avoid congestion among themselves using simple congestion-avoiding traffic rules. The objects adaptively avoid congested regions and move towards less congested...

In this paper, the authors continue the pursuit of the self-coordination mechanism as studied in the El Farol Bar problem. However, in addition to efficiency (the optimal use of the public facility), they are also interested in the distribution of the public resources among all agents. Hence,...

This paper explores theoretically the formation of a system of cities in which ports affect the spatial location and the size of cities. We use a complex systems and economic geography approach to generate 2D cellular automata to simulate the formation of the landscape of urban agglomerations...
