Nowadays, various transportation means use Linux as the operating system for their embedded control systems; however Linux uses all the processes in the hardware equally. This motivates some designer to develop an entire new Operating System for the vehicle; where a modification of Linux can produce the same and even a better product. This paper explains how this modification was designed and implemented...
As today's growing concern about the demand for vehicle's safety system, and especially about intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and intelligent vehicle systems (IVS), have aimed at better driving safety and efficient transportation to vehicle users. Many safety systems have been launched in the market several years ago. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the vehicle safety system. First...
The vehicle routing problem is an important problem in logistics. And it has taken as the NP hard problem. Most of the researchers want to get the best resources by many kinds of ways. But the real-world problem is much more difficult than the VRP. In order to make the model and get the solving strategy for the real-world VRP, the paper analysis the customers' demands and divides the problem into...
This paper describes the experimental plan followed for the testing of the GOOD ROUTE system as well as some indicative test results. GOOD ROUTE system, a cooperative system for Dangerous Goods vehicles, was tested both regarding human factors assessment aspects (usability and user acceptance) as well as system performance aspects in three sites, namely the Finnish highways and bridges (DESTIA), the...
Service reliability is one of the main measures of performance determining transit system level of service. Holding control strategies are a common transit operations practice aimed to reduce transit service unreliability by setting criteria for departure from time point stops. In order to adequately analyze the sources of uncertainty involved with transit performance, it is essential to model dynamically...
When considering the need for an intelligent transportation mode based upon the fact that car travel is still the consumer's first choice, we decided to explore the idea of collective taxis more fully. More precisely, we are seeking to provide an autonomous high quality door-to-door service, affordable by almost everyone, covering the entire urban area simply by allocating in an optimal way more than...
Red-light violation video detection is one of the critical techniques in the intelligent transportation system, it is superior to traditional detection methods in aspect of function and maintenance. According to the practice of crossroads and the characteristics of vehicles running red-light, this paper presents a vision vehicle detection algorithm based on detection region to detect moving vehicles,...
Taking urban traffic trunk to control for the study, it points out a number of shortcomings of the present trunk control method and puts forward the method that for the urban routes traffic characteristics, in a certain period of time, the route cycle and the phase between each two intersections remains the same, while the split is real-time adjusted by certain intersection controller, web-based environment...
This paper deals with a new class of Markov Chain type models that can be effectively used for real time modeling and on-line learning of nonlinear systems with uncertainties. We expand the concept of the generalized Markov Chain - a probabilistic model that synergistically combines the idea of transition probabilities with the information granulation paradigm. We consider generalized Markov chains...
This paper proposes a framework for the automatic management of exchange parking areas, usually located in the periphery of large cities. These parks are used for medium/long period stops of private or public vehicles and the subsequent sorting of passengers to public transportation networks. The objective of this paper is to analyze and stress the potential of a framework that exploits only vision...
With the development of automotive industry and transportation, the safety of transportation is huge invisible trouble by bringing great convenience to human being for many years. As result, the reappearance for the simulation of traffic accidents scene is essential. On the other side the reappearance of traffic accidents is not only the method to evaluate the responsibility, analysis the cause, but...
Recent years, spatial data and distributed sensing data, such as digital road map, traffic route, vehicle speed, event recording and others, are integrated and stored into the spatial temporal database systems. In this paper, we focus on GIS-based scheduling applications using GPS tracking devices and spatial database for the actual vehicle routing problems. Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is the one...
Public traffic trip is a sustainable planning to solve the facing problem of global urban transport. But, the characteristics of public traffic with low capacity, few traffic volume, slowly rate, poorly real-time and bad flexibility in China become the major obstacles. Therefore, public traffic strategy becomes a common view but not easy to extend. So the paper is trying to use the principles of Traffic...
This study combines the ASP and Access technologies to establish a logistics transportation planning system, its main functions include: new companies, company inquiries, and new orders, inquiries about vehicle dispatching, stock inquiries, inquiries of distribution, and inquiries of the best route of the product transportation. With the assistance of this system, we hope the diagrammatic interface...
With the development of integration of urban and rural public transit, urban bus transportation is playing an increasing role in urban economy. To plan the public transit network at the preliminary stage is of great significance to stimulate urban regional economy and improve the urbanization level. In this article, how to use TransCAD to collect and establish urban public transit network data is...
A new solution to vehicle routing problem (VRP) is proposed in order to overcome the disadvantages that the exact algorithms and heuristics algorithms are difficult to solve vehicle routing problem with multiple constraints. A simulation model of vehicle routing problem is built by combining the object-oriented technology and discrete event simulation technology. In this model, the events of distribution...
This paper discusses simulation of the vehicle schedule with time windows. The simulation model is developed in AnyLogic simulation environment. A short overview of AnyLogic structure and scope is provided. A detailed description of a conceptual model with focus on input and output data is given. The structure of the simulation model and operation of its main blocks are described. Each vehicle is...
Since transportation is such an essential component of present-day society, capable of producing significant benefits, yet giving rise to many negative externalities, appropriate policies need to be devised to maximize the benefits and minimize the inconveniences. At the same time the allocation, design and construction of such transport infrastructure and services must be subject to careful planning,...
The decomposition of the transportation task in sub-tasks and the estimation of the accessibility level of Public Transport (PT) means, forms an important input to various services that can be offered on-line, such as route guidance, personalized multimodal-trip planning and in general personalisation of infomobility services for travelers. The questions that need to be considered in such systems...
The Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) prototypes are evolving into a reality in a foreseeable future. Before BEV can embark on a mass adoption by road commuters, a new infrastructure for battery charging will have to be ready in place. By 2015, access to BEV charging will be available at nearly one million charge points in the United States, as claimed by CleanMPG. Early BEV adopters will primarily charge...
