Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research considers model predictive control of traffic signals and groups of vehicles. The model predictive control method is constructed using inequality conditions including binary variables. The method is carried out by solving mixed integer programming problem. Computer simulation results are shown to confirm the effectiveness of this approach in comparison with the conventional method.
