Dear colleagues,
Due to a number of requests, the deadline for paper submission for the Special Issue "Advances in Modeling, Simulation and Optimization of Dynamic Network Traffic" in Transportation Research Part C has been extended to 15 March 2017. More information of this Special Issue can be found below.
Best,
Ke Han, Guest Editor
Scope: 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:
* High performance computing in modeling and optimization of dynamic network traffic;
* 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;
* Combined network traffic control and dynamic network management; and
* Relevant case studies and applications.
