Abstract:
This paper discusses the modelling and performance analysis of signalized traffic control systems using the Deterministic and Stochastic Petri Net (DSPN) formalism. We develop a formal DSPN model for a group of interconnected signalized traffic intersections and present performance indices obtained from simulation runs of example systems.
