  • In Pusan port, the studies which analyze container cargo volumes by using forecasting methods and research about container logistics system, etc., have been continuously carried out. But, in Pusan port, the study on an evaluation of traffic congestion has been scarcely performed until now. Especially, when changing and extending a berth, or constructing a new port, it is very important to examine this field. And it should be considered. Thus, this paper aims to analyze the effect of ship traffic condition in the year 2011, to evaluate marine traffic congestion according to changing ship traffic volumes in Pusan port. To analyze it, we examined the results by simulation method.

  • In this paper, we study the effects of long-range dependence (LRD) in VBR video traffic on queueing system. This paper consists of Part I and II. In Part I, we present a (LRD) video traffic model based on the shifting-level (SL) process. We observe that the ACF of an empirical video trace is accurately captured by the shifting-level process with compound correlation (SLCC): an exponential function in short range and a hyperbolic function in long range. We present an accurate parameter matching algorithm for video traffic. In the Part II, we offer the queueing analysis of SL/D/1/K called ‘quantization reduction method’. Comparing the queueing performances of the DAR(1) model and the SLCC with that of a real video trace, we identify the effects of SRD and LRD in VBR video traffic on queueing performance. Simulation results show that Markoivian models can estimate network performances fairly accurately under a moderate traffic load and buffer condition, whereas LRD may have a significant effect on queueing behavior under a heavy traffic load and large buffer condition.

  • The objective of this paper is to develop and apply a method that estimates the amount of traffic congestion (vehicle hours of delay) caused by traffic accidents that occur on freeways in Korea. A key feature of this research is the development of a method to separate the non- recurrent delay from any recurrent delay that is present on the road at the time and place of a reported accident. The main idea to separate these two delays is to use the speed difference between speed under accident condition and speed under normal flow condition. For the case study application, two datasets were combined to accomplish the objective of the study: (1) accident data and (2) traffic flow data. Eventually, the results can be useful for the performance evaluation of accident reduction program, for strategic plans to cope with congestion caused by traffic accidents, and for rectification of the estimation method for traffic congestion costs.

  • With the advance of ICT, understanding the condition of network and analysing network monitoring have become an important issue. On the TCP/IP network, SNMP is the typical protocol that catches the condition of network by using polling method. If polling method is implemented for a long period, to catch the change of the condition of the network is not easy. On the other hand, in case of short-term polling, even if it could catch the condition of the network in real time, responsive messages to results of the polling cause the increase of traffic and therefore burden the network. There have been studies to control the overhead of responsive messages by controlling the polling period. However, not considering the characteristics of an agent, and running randomly, they cannot decrease the overhead although they would have an instant effect. This paper suggests an efficient polling method that decreases the traffic overhead of polling and catches the condition of the network in real time. Proposed method an polling for a short period and gave weight based on the characteristics of agents to catch the network condition, and a manager decided polling differentially based on the weight so that it decreased the overhead of polling traffic.

  • Weather is an important factor affecting roadway transportation in many aspects such as traffic flow, driver 's driving patterns, and crashes. This study focuses on the relationship between weather and road surface condition and develops a model to estimate the road surface condition using machine learning. A road surface sensor was attached to the probe vehicle to collect road surface condition classified into three categories as 'dry', 'moist' and 'wet'. Road geometry information (curvature, gradient), traffic information (link speed), weather information (rainfall, humidity, temperature, wind speed) are utilized as variables to estimate the road surface condition. A variety of machine learning algorithms examined for predicting the road surface condition, and a two - stage classification model based on 'Random forest' which has the highest accuracy was constructed. 14 days of data were used to train the model and 2 days of data were used to test the accuracy of the model. As a result, a road surface state prediction model with 81.74% accuracy was constructed. The result of this study shows the possibility of estimating the road surface condition using the existing weather and traffic information without installing new equipment or sensors.

  • The collective of highly reliable traffic data is necessary for traffic signal control. This study is to test application of RTMS sensor to traffic signal control. In order to find out the possibility of its application th traffic signal control, 5 types of experiments were performed. The major findings are as follows ; -The detection are a has been changing according to degree and gain. -At the results of experiments for interference are a measure, Degree 60 is stable condition. -At the results of reliability test for volume and speed. the error rate decreases as speed increases and that of Zone 1 is lower than that of Zone 3. -Two modes are set up for reliability test of traffic volume. It founds that the detection reliability of the stopped vehicles are higher than that of the passing vehicles at sidefire-intersection mode. It founds that the results are vice-versa at sidefire-highway mode. Conclusively, this sensor cannot directly apply to colection of traffic data for traffic signal control. However, this sensor can be substituted for a loop detector which is used popularly for signal control, and freeway traffic control if above faults are made up.

  • It is recognized that one of the problems for the current 'Traffic Adaptive Control System in Seoul' is the performance at the oversaturated condition. Instead of 'Degree of Saturation' adopted in the current system, the methodology of balancing the queue length was developed and evaluated in this study. This method keeps the balance of queue lengths on the intersections and reduces the overall queue lengths. In addition a traffic signal control model was developed based on the method. This model can reduce not only the queue lengths but also the average delay of vehicles according to the macroscopic and microscopic evaluations.

  • The golden time of emergency vehicle is directly connected to the public safety. Therefore, national attention has increased to cut down the emergency vehicle's travel time. In order to shorten the intial dispatch time of it, emergency preemption system was installed at five intersections, and after test operation, whether it could be introduced in the country was estimated. We analyzed the effect of the traffic volume, emergency vehicle's travel time, and queue length under preemption and non-preemption. In the verification of the emergency preemption system, it was confirmed that the emergency vehicle's travel time was reduced from 350% to 24% compared to non-preemption system(TOD). In the saturated condition, queue length were remained 15 minutes and near saturated condition was about 30 or 45 minutes. At the non-saturated condition, the queue length's difference between emergency preemption system and general signal was small.
