Abstract
Most computerized traffic control systems that are now operational use a central computer to perform virtually all data processing tasks. These systems operate satisfactorily, but it is believed that this system design approach is now stretched to its limit of practical capability. The recent availability of economical microprocessors and their successful application to traffic signal controllers suggests that investigations should be conducted into the formulation of traffic control system concepts that make full use of microprocessor capabilities and thereby identify improved systems for future applications, particularly those that relate to the concept of traffic management systems that is currently in favor. This paper describes a Multilevel Distributed System (MLDS) concept designed to meet future traffic control and traffic management system requirements as currently envisioned.
