Balancing of Queues or Waiting Times on Metered Dual-Branch On-Ramps

2011
Journal Articles

Abstract

Metered dual-branch on-ramps may feature strongly different (relative) queues or waiting times on each of their branches. Different methods are developed to balance the queues or relative queues or waiting times on both branches. The methods are evaluated and compared based on extensive microscopic simulations. As a by-product, a waiting-time estimation and control method for metered ramps is also developed. The developed methods are implemented in the operational ramp-metering system of the Monash Freeway (Melbourne, Australia). The developed concepts are also applicable to other kinds of traffic control problems involving merging traffic streams. © 2006 IEEE.

Product (business)

In marketing, a product is an object, or system, or service made available for consumer use as of the consumer demand; it is anything that can be offered to a market to satisfy the desire or need of a customer. In retailing, products are often referred to as merchandise, and in manufacturing, products are bought as raw materials and then sold as finished goods. A service is also regarded as a type of product. In project management, products are the formal definition of the project deliverables that make up or contribute to delivering the objectives of the project.

Dot product

In mathematics, the dot product or scalar product is an algebraic operation that takes two equal-length sequences of numbers (usually coordinate vectors), and returns a single number. In Euclidean geometry, the dot product of the Cartesian coordinates of two vectors is widely used. It is often called the inner product (or rarely projection product) of Euclidean space, even though it is not the only inner product that can be defined on Euclidean space (see Inner product space for more).

Product design

Product design as a verb is to create a new product to be sold by a business to its customers. A very broad coefficient and effective generation and development of ideas through a process that leads to new products. Thus, it is a major aspect of new product development. Product design process: the set of strategic and tactical activities, from idea generation to commercialization, used to create a product design. In a systematic approach, product designers conceptualize and evaluate ideas, turning them into tangible inventions and products.
