Feed-forward ALINEA

A ramp metering control algorithm for nearby and distant bottlenecks

This paper proposes a new ramp metering control algorithm, Feed-Foward ALINEA (FF-ALINEA), for bottlenecks located both nearby on an on-ramp and further away from it (i.e., more than just a few hundred meters). The formulation of the controller is based on a feed-forward modifica ...

SPERT

A speed limit strategy for recurrent traffic jams

This paper proposes and simulates a speed limit controller for recurrent traffic jams (SPERT). SPERT is a simple yet efficient variable speed limit (VSL) control strategy based on the behavior of the optimal controller without any need for online optimization. The online implemen ...
This paper proposes a new macroscopic model for Variable Speed Limits (VSLs), combining characteristics of previously proposed models, in order to have the capability of modeling different capacities, critical densities, and levels of compliance for links affected by speed limits ...
The goals of this paper are to analyze the effects of Variable Speed Limits (VSLs) on freeway traffic flow, to propose a new macroscopic model for VSL, and to compare, calibrate and validate the most well known macroscopic models for VSL using real data from a stretch of the A12 ...
The main goal of this paper is the proposal and simulation of a SPEed limit controller for Recurrent Traffic jams (SPERT) that approximates the behavior of an optimal controller when congestion profiles are similar to the typical one. In order to achieve this goal, the optimal so ...
This paper proposes a logic-based control algorithm for Variable Speed Limits (VSLs) in order to reduce or avoid traffic jams created at bottlenecks. The proposed controller estimates, for each controller time step, the number of vehicles that have to be held back or released by ...

Simultaneous Multi-Robot Task Scheduling and Path Planning

An integrated approach to task scheduling and path planning for mobile robots in production environments

Manufacturing processes often run on a schedule, because each production step takes a certain amount of time, after which a component is transported to the next machine. Mobile robots can be used to automate transportation of components between production steps. To do so, a task ...
