Method for developing systems for distributed control of traffic flows based on interconnected agents
Incoming article date: 24.12.2021The ever-increasing number of vehicles creates a heavy load on the transport network of cities. One of the ways to solve this problem is to develop methods for controlling traffic under existing constraints. The first developments in adaptive transport management began to appear in the mid-eighties of the last century. They were able to positively influence the transport situation of cities and regions. Each of the adaptive control methods has passed a fairly long period before being directly applied, undergoing constant changes and improvements. As a result, systems built on the basis of these methods are being implemented and are still functioning. In order to simplify the processes of development, operation, maintenance and scalability of adaptive transport control systems, to implement the principles of active management to increase the flexibility of such systems in the design and application, a method has been developed for building distributed traffic control systems that allows you to design a system from ready-made blocks and implement it according to the principle plug and play.
