In this paper, an automated intelligent vehicle/highway system (IVHS) is described, and a four-layer hierarchical control architecture is proposed to decompose this problem into more manageable units.
Abstract
Key features of one automated intelligent vehicle/highway system (IVHS) are outlined, it is shown how core driver decisions are improved, a basic IVHS control system architecture is proposed, and a design of some control subsystems is offered. Some experimental work is summarized. A system that promises a threefold increase in capacity is outlined, and a four-layer hierarchical control architecture that decomposes this problem into more manageable units is proposed. >

Stochastic Hybrid Control

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the stochastic version of a previous paper of the authors, in which hybrid control for deterministic systems was considered, and show how the dynamic programming approach leads to some involved quasi-variational inequality.

Building models of real-time systems from application software

TL;DR: An instance of the methodology developed in the TAXYS project for the modeling and analysis of real-time systems programmed in the Esterel language is shown, by using pragmas, time constraints characterizing the execution platform and the external environment.

A Study on Run Time Assurance for Complex Cyber Physical Systems

TL;DR: This study investigates the key technologies available and needed to increase the reliance on run time assurance, and suggests that if, through the use of run time architecture, the authors can provably bound systems behavior, then it may be possible to reduce the dependence on comprehensive off-line verification, shifting the analysis/test burden to the more provable run timeurance mechanism.

Autonomous Detection and Anticipation of Jam Fronts from Messages Propagated by Intervehicle Communication

TL;DR: By means of simulations, it is shown that the algorithms for congestion-front recognition, message transmission, and processing reliably predict the existence and position of jam fronts for vehicle equipment rates as low as 3%.

Preview Control for Vehicle Lateral Guidance in Highway Automation

TL;DR: In this paper, a continuous time deterministic optimal preview control algorithm is applied to the lateral guidance of a vehicle for an automated highway, where the front wheel steering angle of the vehicle is controlled so that the vehicle follows the center for a lane with small tracking error and maintains good ride quality simultaneously.
