Applicability of road safety indicators to assess driving risks under Swiss road conditions

André-Gilles Dumont, Edward Chung, Minh Hai Pham

Road traffic crash is a problem in every country. According to World Health Organization, in Europe there are about 127,000 people killed and at least some 2.4 million injured each year. Incident detection algorithms to detect incidents on motorways are we ...

Adaptive fine-tuning of nonlinear control systems with application to the urban traffic control strategy TUC

Anastasios Kouvelas

Practical large-scale nonlinear control systems require an intensive and time-consuming effort for the fine-tuning of their control parameters in order to achieve a satisfactory performance. In most cases, the fine-tuning process may take years and is perf ...

Statistical characteristics of transitional queue conditions in signalized arterials

Nikolaos Geroliminis

The performance of signalized arterials is related to queuing phenomena. The paper investigates the effect of transitional traffic flow conditions imposed by the formation and dissipation of queues. A cross-recurrence quantification analysis combined with ...

Self-Limiting Epidemic Forwarding

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Alaeddine El Fawal

We define a self-limiting epidemic service as a dissemination service for ad-hoc environments that is broadcast in nature, but is limited to a local scope around each source. Example applications are chatting or bulletin boards in a traffic jam, in an inst ...

Intelligent Driver Assistance Systems

Mario Bellino

Over the past decade, the automotive industry has made many efforts to improve the comfort and first and foremost the safety of passenger cars. So-called driver assistance systems have been developed, which support the driver in his task of controlling (st ...

Layered Complex Networks

Patrick Thiran, Maciej Kurant

Many complex networks are only a part of larger systems, where a number of coexisting topologies interact and depend on each other. We introduce a layered model to facilitate the description and analysis of such systems. As an example of its application, w ...

From car traffic to production flows

Roger Filliger

The purpose of this thesis is to show on explicit examples how various theoretical concepts, ranging from statistical mechanics to stochastic control and from traffic theory to queuing systems, can be transferred to transport processes, encountered in part ...

Route choice relevance in complex urban network micro- simulation models

André-Gilles Dumont, Emmanuel Bert

In dynamic models, like microsimulation, dynamic traffic assignment is based on the use of traffic conditions measured during the simulation process in order to keep o sort of equilibrium between demand and supply. Route choices are consequently done by kn ...

Modeling Internet backbone traffic at the flow level

Patrick Thiran

Our goal is to design a traffic model for non congested IP backbone links, which is simple enough to be used in network operation, while being as general as possible. The proposed solution is to model the traffic at the flow level by a Poisson shot-noise p ...
