On the design of a route parsing engine for connected vehicles with applications to congestion management systems

Abstract

In this paper we present a new type of congestion management system to regulate congestion around a single link obstruction. This obstruction will be investigated in two cases: A) a regular obstruction and b) an irregular obstruction. The principle innovations of our system are to utilise a route parsing engine to both predict the likelihood of a vehicle being affected by the obstruction and make decisions ahead of time, and to use this information to make a fair congestion management system.
