Traffic modeling has been of interest to mathematicians since the 1950s. Research in the area has only grown as road traffic control presents an ever-increasing problem. In a new paper, authors ...

Using autonomous vehicles to improve traffic flow Date: October 8, 2014 Source: Temple University Summary: With autonomous vehicles entering our roadways as soon as with the next decade ...

Now, while this works well in terms of improving road safety, it does very little to improve traffic flow. In fact, this model can actually cause traffic jams. Don’t believe me?

New traffic-light timing software could put an end to gridlock. Jose-Luis Olivares/MIT It happens to every driver more often than he or she would probably like: Travel along a planned route, and ...

A six-mile traffic technology testbed in Tennessee will utilize some 300 high-definition cameras to analyze and understand traffic flow. The project will include researchers from major ...

This system, being tested in a number of different cities such as Singapore, can take input from various road sensors and, using a traffic flow model for that city, not only show where the traffic ...
