This paper deals with the coordination of a group of mobile robots at an intersection. It focusses on decentralized navigation functions (DNFs) to achieve efficient traffic control. The main challenge is to define virtual potentials, which are used by dece ...
Today's airports aren't anymore pure interfaces between ground and air. Since several years they are going through an intense development. Their ground and air accessibility attracts real estate development and (re-) links the region it is implemented in. ...
Consideration was given to a well-known problem of traffic control at an individual intersection with minimal total delay. The constraints on control (duration of green light in the main direction) and phase variables (queue lengths along each direction) w ...
In this paper, we study the problem of optimizing (fine-tuning) the design parameters of large-scale traffic control systems that are composed of distinct and mutually interacting modules. This problem usually requires a considerable amount of human effort ...

Floating Car Data (FCD) fleets are a valuable data source to obtain travel times as basis for traffic information or route guidance systems. To deliver reliable traffic information and to improve algorithms and systems for generating FCD from GPS positions ...
A new traffic-responsive feedback control strategy, heuristic ramp-metering coordination (HERO) that coordinates local ramp-metering actions in freeway networks is presented. The proposed coordination scheme is simple and reactive [i.e., based on readily a ...
Tight unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) autonomous missions such as formation flight (FF) and aerial refueling (AR) require an active controller that works in conjunction with a precise sensor that is able to identify an in-front aircraft and to estimate its r ...
