Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Traffic Light Sequence Algorithm Using RFIDKhalid A.S. Al-Khateeb, Jaiz A.Y. Johari, Wajdi F. Al-KhateebProblem statement: Traffic congestion and tidal flow management were recognized as major problems in modern urban areas, which have caused much frustration and loss of man hours. Approach: In order to solve the problem an intelligent RFID traffic control has been developed. It has circumvented or avoided the problems that usually arise with systems such as those, which use image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 21,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Vehicle Flows and Emissions for Various Scenarios of Street Network Modifications in Mexico CityAngelica Lozano, Francisco Granados, Juan Pablo AntunWe estimate flows and emissions (NOx, HC, CO) generated by vehicles circulating on the main streets of the Mexico City Metropolitan Area. The estimation is made for various scenarios, which include a set of changes to the street network for current and future horizons. These changes encompass the construction of new arcs or improvement of existing arcs. Network flows are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhy Do People Use Their Cars: A Case Study In MalaysiaAbdalla Nurdeen Kamba, Riza Atiq O.K. Rahmat, Amiruddin IsmailIn Malaysia, the rapid increase in the use of own transport prompted by inadequate public transport has resulted in increased traffic congestion, accidents, inadequate parking space and air pollution among other evils. This study sought to identify the factors preventing own transport users from shifting to public transport and to develop model shift from car to public transport in order … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 9,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProximity Aware Routing in Ad Hoc NetworksValerie Alandzi, Alejandro QuinteroMost of the existing routing protocols for ad hoc networks are designed to scale in networks of a few hundred nodes. They rely on state concerning all links of the network or links on the route between a source and a destination. This may result in poor scaling properties in larger mobile networks or when node mobility is high. Using … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSSM: Slot Scheduling Mechanisms in a Multihop Wireless Hotspot NetworkMaan Younis AbdullahOur focus was to determine a "slot" time for message forwarding. To this end, we model the system as a "Queue" where the time for packet forwarding is determined by slot, at different slot range for each relaying node. We also introduced one important reason of the poor performance is the close coupling between medium contention and network congestion. Our … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,445 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Steering and Adaptive Cruise Control for Autonomous Vehicles Using Model Predictive ControlSai Charan Dekkata, Sun YiThe research on autonomous vehicles was started nearly a century ago but the major parts of significant advance have been done over the past few decades. In this paper, designing and simulating of a Model Predictive Controller (MPC) and comparing it to a classical feedback controller, which was designed and implemented on a car for Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) and … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 26 Jun 2019 · 8,019 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards a Generic Multimodal Architecture for Batch and Streaming Big Data IntegrationSiham Yousfi, Maryem Rhanoui, Dalila ChiadmiBig Data are rapidly produced from various heterogeneous data sources. They are of different types (text, image, video or audio) and have different levels of reliability and completeness. One of the most interesting architectures that deal with the large amount of emerging data at high velocity is called the lambda architecture. In fact, it combines two different processing layers namely … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2019 · 7,646 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Contribution of Traffic to Air Pollution in the State of KuwaitN. Al-Mutairi, P. KoushkiProblem statement: The reduction in ambient air pollution is a universal goal-particularly in urban areas, the lack of resources often necessitates identification and prioritization of sources of air pollutants. Efficient planning and effective management of environmental pollutants is thus important for optimum utilization of limited resources. Approach: This study examined seven years of data from three air pollution monitoring stations … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
