This report describes the NETCELL simulation package. NETCELL is a freeway network simulation program based on the cell transmission model which captures the dynamic evolution of multicommodity traffic over a freeway network with three-legged junctions in a way that is consistent with the...

This paper describes a freeway incident detection scheme that does not rely on complicated theories. The procedure compares the occupancy information recorded by two neighboring loop detectors to determine whether an incident has occurred in the intervening segment, using a recipe that is...

A procedure for solving, suboptimally, the traveling salesman problem is presented. The set of points on the traveling salesman tour is distributed over a region having the shape of a circular or ring sector. The procedure is based on an optimal partition of the sector and reduces the tour...
