  24. Some projects • Meteosafety • Objective • To optimize the efficiency of detector/actuators to improve road safety in adverse weather situations. Theoricstudies Status of the ART Accidentally and meteo Recommendations for meteo stations Applied research DSS Risk situation prognosis Prototypes RDS-TMC Prototype DSS Prototype Pilot test

  25. Some projects • Meteosafety • Two levels of intelligence

  26. Some projects • Meteosafety • Local system • Meteo station • URS • VMS and/or RDS • One or more DCS

  27. Some projects • Meteosafety • MAS architecture

  28. Some projects • NEDPIC: Distributed multi-agent negotiation model for the intelligent parking trucks. • Objective • To study and specify an integral model for the intelligent truck parking management. • It takes into account the constraints: • Drivers • Routes and rest areas • Dangerous goods • It will establish criteria for collective optimization and traffic management. • To improve both the individual and collective management of parking areas. • Collaboration between UJI and UV

  29. Some projects • NEDPIC: two subprojects • New methodology for the definition of ontologies recommendations (W3C, OWL 2) • A new ontological description of the actors involved in the ITP management will be created • An innovative multi-agent system to support the development of ITP management strategies • Compatible with the current V2V and V2I communication architectures. • A new negotiation protocol will be created • based on fuzzy decision algorithms and dynamic prioritization criteria for each scenario (individual, section, or network)

  30. Some projects • DEMANAT. A MAS environment for automated negotiation in traffic. • Objectives • A new automated negotiation protocol to support the management of no urban incidences

  31. Some projects • CTMSimAgent: Using Agents to improve Traffic simulators • Collaboration between UJI and UWB • Objective • Improve the Meteosafety MAS with a traffic forecast agent. • Real time and off line • Request • Good and Open source traffic simulator • 1st approach • CTSIM simulator

  32. Some projects • CTMSimAgent • Based on Cell Transmission Model (CTM) • Advantages • It takes about a minute to simulate one day’s operation of a freeway. • Open source • Good results • Disadvantages • Needs Matlab • Only simulates a single freeway (with various on-ramps and off-ramps)  i.e. the simulation for a road network is not supported.

  33. Some projects • CTMSimAgent • Implementation • Java • Jade MAS platform • Agent • It controls CTMSim and Matlab with a wrapping M-script • It uses JMatIO for work with Matlab files • The whole simulation process (input, process and results) are in the agent • It is quite simple and independent • The input parameters could be provided by meteosafety agents

  34. Some projects • CTMSimAgent: Testing the agents.

  35. Some projects • CTMSimAgent • Simulations • R1 normal traffic, R2 normal traffic • R1 high traffic, R2 normal traffic • R1 normal traffic, R2 normal traffic • Increase of 20% in off-ramp p1 • R1 hight traffic, R2 normal traffic • Increase of 40% in off-ramp • R1 hight traffic, R2 normal traffic • Increase of 40% in off-ramp P1 • Increase of 40% in on ramp P2

  36. Some projects • CTMSimAgent • Results are positives • Traffic simulation results are similar to AIMSUM simulator results. • Using CTMSimAgents a road network could be simulated • It could be integrated in other MAS platforms, like Meteosafety • A paper for a conference/journal is being prepared.
