The fact that road transportation negatively affects the quality of the environment and
deteriorates its bearing capacity has drawn a wide range of concerns among researchers. In …

Recurrent and nonrecurrent congestion on freeways may be alleviated if today's"
spontaneous" infrastructure utilization is replaced by an orderly, controllable operation via …

Travel time is a fundamental measure in transportation. Accurate travel-time prediction also
is crucial to the development of intelligent transportation systems and advanced traveler …

Conventional reinforcement learning (RL) models of variable speed limit (VSL) control
systems (and traffic control systems in general) cannot be trained in real traffic process …

The impact of variable speed limits (VSL) on aggregate traffic flow behaviour on motorways
is shown to bear similarities to the impact of ramp metering, in particular, when addressing …

Freeway traffic control is a broad research area, not only interesting for its applicative
perspective, but also highly motivating for theoretical investigations. This research topic has …

This paper employs previously developed modeling, validation, and stimulation tools to
address, for the first time, the realistic macroscopic simulation of a real large-scale motorway …

The onramp metering control problem is posed using a cell transmission-like model called
the asymmetric cell transmission model (ACTM). The problem formulation captures both …

Recent research has proposed mainstream traffic flow control (MTFC), enabled via variable
speed limits (VSLs), as a novel motorway traffic management tool and has demonstrated its …

A macroscopic modeling framework for dynamic traffic phenomena on multidestination
