Dynamic intermodal routing environment for control and telematics - analysis, modelling and simulation (DIRECTView-AMS) is a visualisation application designed to view the performance measures generated during simulations using DIRECT software with options to turn on and off scenarios. This tool can be used for evaluating dynamic mobility applications and active transportation and demand management strategies, applications, and concepts.

Intelligent network flow optimisation analysis, modelling, and simulation (AMS) consists of three different applications used in the San Mateo, California, AMS test bed effort---queue warning, speed harmonisation, and cooperative adaptive cruise control. These cross-functional applications were modelled together and used simulation inputs (sensor and connected vehicle data) to generate vehicle-specific commands and desired speed decisions.

Connected and automated speed harmonisation software analyses real-time traffic conditions to calculate and communicate speed commands for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs), with the overall goal of harmonising traffic flow. This application includes software to run on a server that simulates a traffic management centre to collect the data needed to perform a speed control algorithm and communicate results with CAVs; on-board speed control software for CAVs to enable two-way communication with the TMC; and an on-board human machine interface to display information on current speed, commanded speed, confidence in the commanded speed, and the status of surrounding CAVs to the CAV driver.

    The Netherlands has the ambition to head the field in the area of cooperative ITS and smart mobility. The country needs innovative mobility solutions to keep its urban delta open, healthy and safe and to support economic growth. For the Netherlands, ITS creates an opportunity to foster innovation and strengthen its competitive position within supplier- and after-markets. Thanks to the country’s highly developed and dense traffic network, the Netherlands is eminently suitable as a development and large-scale

Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) is the lead agency for an extensive Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) project in Dallas, covering an area stretching north east of downtown Dallas, 20 miles long by two miles wide. The corridor is defined loosely by the US-75 freeway and DART’s light rail ‘red line’. These are the theor
