Details
Transportation agencies have recognized the importance of the utilization of off-line and real-time decision support systems to enhance transportation system management and operations (TSMO). The effectiveness of these systems are expected to increase as data from multiple sources become available for all parts of the transportation network, as models and tools are further developed and validated based on data analytics and simulation, and as the complexity of the system increases with the introduction of connected and automated vehicles in the traffic stream. This presentation will review data analytics and simulation modeling-based approaches for off-line and real-time support of TSMO and the opportunities for the implementation of these approaches.
Presenter – Dr Mohammed Hadi, Professor and Director of Lehman Center for Transportation Research, Florida International University
