Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermining Road Lighting Impact on Traffic Stream CharacteristicsBen-Edigbe Johnnie, Kurnia Yuli AstridThe study is aimed at estimating road lighting impact on traffic stream characteristics; flow, speed, density and headway for an uninterrupted traffic flow. Volume, speed and headway data were collected during daylight, road lighting and dry weather conditions. Flowrate, speed, density and headways were estimated for daylight and road lighting periods; then compared. Since flowrate, free-flow speed, optimum speed critical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 2 Jul 2013 · 7,020 accessesView PDFCite

Monzer Habbal, Khuzairi Mohd ZainiThe demand for Internet services and network resources in Educational networks are increasing rapidly. Specifically, the revolution of web 2.0 "also referred to as the Read-Write Web" has changed the way of information exchange and distribution. Although web 2.0 has gained attraction in all sectors of the education industry, but it results in high-traffic loads on networks which often leads … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 12 Nov 2013 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAdaptive Linear Prediction Augmented Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Based Prediction for VBR Video TrafficT. Raghuveera, P. V.S. Kumar, K. S. EaswarakumarProblem statement: Network traffic prediction plays a vital role in the optimal resource allocation and management in computer networks. This study introduces an ARIMA based model augmented by Adaptive Linear Prediction (ALP) for the real time prediction of VBR video traffic. The synergy of the two can successfully address the challenges in traffic prediction such as accuracy in prediction, resource … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Stochastic Properties into Traffic Flow Modeling: A Stimulus-Response ApproachKonate N’Golo, Mark Kimathi, Emile DanhoHighway traffic congestion, characterized by its inherent instability, has been extensively studied using deterministic models, providing valuable insights. However, these models often overlook the stochastic nature of driver behavior, a key factor that significantly impacts traffic flow. Recognizing this, a car-following model with discretionary lane changes to analyze their effect on traffic dynamics was introduced. While the mathematical results were … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 19 Dec 2024 · 7,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRoute Optimization using Hybrid GRU Learning Model for SDN and Edge-Based VANET TopologySavitha Kumar, Chandrasekar ChinnasamyIntelligent Transportation System (ITS) offersoutstanding features, including security applications and emergency alerts.Unfortunately, ITS limits traffic control services, adaptability, andadjustability due to the traffic volume. Hence, expanding the standard VehicularAd hoc Networks (VANET) framework is a requirement. As a result, in the latestdays, the concept of Software-Defined Networking based Vehicular Ad hocNetworks (SDN-VANETs) has drawn considerable attention, creating VANETssmarter. The SDN-VANETs … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 8 · 26 Aug 2022 · 6,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComprehensive Assessment of Spatial Distribution of Road-Network Vulnerability in South AsiaPan Yuqi, Jiang Penghui, Li Manchun, Chen DengshuaiUnexpected phenomena-natural disasters, accidents and wars-can disrupt regional traffic systems because of the incapacities of road networks to sustain inflicted impacts. Therefore, the assessment of road-network vulnerability becomes integral to traffic-safety-maintenance and accident-prevention procedures. This study demonstrates the development of a comprehensive network system based on suggested improvements in node extraction, road construction and network attribution. An indicator system for … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 6 · 24 Dec 2021 · 6,446 accessesView PDFCite
