Development of a dynamic traffic assignment system for short-term planning applications

Abstract

Evaluation of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) at the planning level, as well as various short-term planning projects, require the use of appropriate tools that can capture the dynamic and stochastic interactions between demand and supply. The objective of this thesis is to develop a methodological framework for such applications and implement it in the context of an existing dynamic traffic assignment system, DynaMIT. The methodological framework captures the day-to-day evolution of traffic. Furthermore, it models traveler behavior and network performance, in response to special events and situations such as incidents, weather emergencies, sport events etc. The new planning tool DynaMIT-P, consists of a supply (network performance) simulator, a demand simulator and algorithms that capture their interactions.
