This paper addresses the problem of controlling the performance of optical burst switching (OBS) networks in presence of non-stationary traffic demands. We propose a joint burst admission control and forwarding mechanism that operates in core nodes. This m ...

A new management policy regarding road runoff was proposed in 2002 by the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN). This new concept is based on the diffuse infiltration of road runoff into embankment slopes, where soils will filter particles and co ...
With the bigger number of cars on our roads every year, also the potential danger to die or get injured in road traffic increases. Most of these accidents are due to human error, while driver assistant systems like ESP help making traffic more safe. To inc ...
This article describes a new approach to the macroscopic first order modeling and simulation of traffic flow in complex urban road intersections. The framework is theoretically sound, operational, and comprises a large body of models presented so far in th ...
By decreasing the mixing and laying temperatures, warm mix asphalts (WMA) allow a reduction of the energy consumption as well as the emissions, thus contributing to the sustainable development. However researches are necessary for these asphalt mixtures to ...
This special issue contains a selection of invited, full-length, peer-reviewed manuscripts from participants of the international workshop “Water in Pavements WIP’05”, held in Madrid, Spain on 27th October 2005. The presented papers give a complete picture ...
One of the most important research efforts developed to date is the European Project ELLPAG (European Long-Life Pavement Group). It was founded, in 2002, as a FEHRL group to gather the European knowledge. The group has been active since then, and it has be ...
Temperature highly affects pavement performance. High and low temperatures not only affects the viscosity of asphalt concrete but also has an impact on the moisture flow within pavements. At temperatures below 0°C the freezing of pavements dramatically cha ...
“Pavement conditions from intelligent pavements and intelligent vehicles”, aims to improve the management of road network maintenance by life health monitoring through smart methods able to predict the deterioration process and actual condition in unobtrus ...
