...It is now fully implemented for Districts 7,8, 12. PeMS is being extended to other Caltrans districts The PeMS system comprises (1) a large database that stores historical and real-time data, (2) a set of algorithms including the g-factor and speed estimators that process these data to generate several performance measures (including congestion and travel time); and ( 3 ) a server that delivers this information to managers, engineers, and ......
