Abstract

A Thesis Submitted to the Department of Computer Engineering, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Computer Engineering, 2016

Highlights

  • Lots of efforts have been made in different countries with different expertise in attempt to either eliminate, control or reduce traffic congestion

  • Travel Time is computed based on occupancy-speed relationship and speed/distance/travel-time dependencies that called for the adjustment of instantaneous occupancy for error

  • Instantaneous occupancy data is acquired from a sensor network superimposed on the target road network

Summary

Introduction

Lots of efforts have been made in different countries with different expertise in attempt to either eliminate, control or reduce traffic congestion. If decongestion strategies are not employed quickly in such situations, the network may encounter congestion collapse where the capacity of the road network may seem to be lower. This effect is considerable, and values of a performance reduction up to 30 percent is recorded (Kornhauser, 2005). This work reviews existing work in the scope of traffic management on both road and data networks. It follows by examining some similarities between data and vehicular traffic
