Dear UTSG Members,
In conjunction with the activities of the 19th EURO Working Group on
Transportation Meeting (EWGT2016) a special issue in the international
journal Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies on
‘Advances in Modeling, Simulation and Optimization of Dynamic Network
Traffic’ is being organized. Having presented a paper at EWGT2016 is NOT
a must for submitting a paper to this special issue. Please note that the
submission deadline is JANUARY 15, 2017. Below are the details:
SCOPE OF THE SPECIAL ISSUE:
The current technological progressions on electronics and computer science
possess a great potential to extend the application of computing
methodologies in research and industry. The increasing computing
capabilities and data availability have advanced the modeling, simulation,
and optimization of complex systems such as dynamic transportation
networks. This gives rise not only to the incorporation of various existing
and emerging theories and methods into network problems, but also to the
robust simulation of cooperative and interactive user-network behavior for
real-time solutions. Considering the need for the efficient modeling,
simulation and optimization of dynamic network traffic with reasonable
computation load, this special issue solicits novel contributions and
breaking results on all aspects of theoretical and applied studies in
network traffic simulation and optimization.
We aim to provide a collage of high-quality papers presenting crucial
aspects of dynamic network modeling, simulation and optimization, including
both established and state-of-the-art solutions in this field, and showcase
emerging innovative ideas and technologies. This special issue is open to
the entire international research community. Papers suitable for this issue
should focus on topics including:
- Robust estimation and prediction of network traffic state;
- Dynamic traffic assignment enabled by real-time data;
- Emerging data technologies to support dynamic network traffic management
applications;
- Large-scale on-line traffic control;
- Distributed adaptive control for dynamic traffic networks;
- High performance computing in modeling and optimization of dynamic
network traffic;
- Combined network traffic control and dynamic network management; and
- Relevant case studies and applications.
