TLDR
A stochastic discrete automaton model is introduced to simulate freeway traffic and shows a transition from laminar traffic flow to start-stop- waves with increasing vehicle density, as is observed in real freeway traffic.Abstract:
We introduce a stochastic discrete automaton model to simulate freeway traffic. Monte-Carlo simulations of the model show a transition from laminar traffic flow to start-stop- waves with increasing vehicle density, as is observed in real freeway traffic. For special cases analytical results can be obtained.read more

Prediction feedback in intelligent traffic systems
TL;DR: This paper studied dynamics of traffic flow with real-time information provided and the influence of a feedback strategy named prediction feedback strategy is introduced, based on a two-route scenario in which dynamic information can be generated and displayed on the board to guide road users to make a choice.

Cellular Automaton Modeling of the Interaction between Vehicles and Pedestrians at Signalized Crosswalk
TL;DR: Characteristics of mixed traffic on a road with a signalized crosswalk are investigated by cellular automaton modeling and there are two critical values for pedestrian flow for a large signal cycle value, whereas there is only one critical value when the signal cyclevalue is smaller than a critical value.
