“…Considerable research efforts, including both objective and subjective methods, have been made to determine what kinds of VMS content and format should be displayed, and drivers' attitudes towards VMS [5][6][7]. The paper by [8] investigated the effects of diverse factors on drivers' guidance compliance behaviors according to road information shown on VMS, finding that factors such as age, driving years, monthly income, driving style, occupation, and familiarity with road network are significant determinants of guidance compliance behavior. Driver response to information provided by VMS was analyzed in [9] using a multinomial logit model calibrated based on personal socioeconomic characteristics and trip features.…”

Variable message signs (VMS) are used to display messages providing up-to-date traffic-relevant information so that drivers can safely adapt their behavior in real time. The information reported in a VMS should be brief but comprehensive to minimize perception time. The latter can be influenced by the way the message is displayed. This study investigates how the different ways of displaying the same message can influence reading time and the information perception process at different driving speeds. Specifically, the following message characteristics are investigated: (i) use of uppercase and lowercase letters; (ii) use of familiar pictograms; and (iii) use of less familiar pictograms. Furthermore, as perception time typically changes with ageing, drivers belonging to three different age classes are tested. The experimentation was performed by simulating a vehicle passing along a straight road upon which a VMS displaying different messages was placed. Experimentation results are analyzed using the Kruskal–Wallis test, Friedman rank-sum test and Welch one-way ANOVA, showing that: (i) the use of uppercase or lowercase does not seem to significantly affect reading times; (ii) the use of pictograms that are not very familiar to habitual road-users can be counterproductive for the perception process; (iii) elderly drivers always have greater difficulty in perceiving the message than young or middle-aged drivers. The findings of this study can be of help for traffic authorities to design the most suitable structure for a VMS so that its information can be unequivocally and immediately conveyed to drivers.

“…A) Optimum solution f rs p * t (f rs p * t ∈ Ω), which satisfies equilibrium conditions(20),(21), and(22), is also the optimum solution of VI problem(25). The following formula can be conducted from(21) and(22):f rs p tφ rs p t −φ rs min t ≥ 0 26And the following formula can be conducted from(20):f rs p * tφ rs p t −φ rs min t = 0 27Subtract (26) from(27), and sum it by rs, t, and p; then VI problem (25) can be obtained.

In order to satisfy the diverse demand of travel service in the context of big data, this paper puts forward a unified framework for optimal routing choice under guidance information. With consideration of the influence of big data, the scenario analysis of routing choice is implemented, and the routing choice under guidance information is discussed. The optimal routing choice problem is abstracted into the collaboration optimization model of travel route choice, departure time choice, and travel mode choice. Based on some basic assumptions, the collaboration optimization model is formulated as a variational inequality model. The method of successive averages is applied to solve the proposed model. A case study is carried out to verify the applicability and reliability of the model and algorithm.

Constantly growing population of modern cities makes it difficult to share the public areas efficiently, healty and securely. Especially revising the infrastructures of urban regions according to future, there are a lot of strategies including optimum operating of public areas to overcome this problem. Undoubtedly, one of the most important components of optimization facilities is the traffic coordination. Studies on building the multi-lane roads, subways, undergrounds and pedestrian bridges, positioning the pedestrian and vehicle lanes for these roads, designing the traffic lights according to traffic jam are the most important backbones of the traffic management. Intelligent signalization applications integrated with this backbone, traffic routing and pinboards are some main components of the coordination for this traffic infrastructure. For this reason, the management of city car parking is crucial for this coordination works. In this study, it has been intended to design a system enables cars, in motion at traffic or parking area, to park in a easiest way as soon as possible via various inductive sensors, cameras, traffic routing and pinboards. Intelligent car parking solutions integrated with city traffic management systems have been formed by providing data coordination via cellular and fiber communication infrastructures in accordance to the proposed structure of the system. The parking time with an average of about 7.3 minutes during the day can be reduced by up to 5.3 minutes through considered parking system. Thus, time saving and labor force efficiency will be achieved about 74,5% which means CO2 emissions, are not only for cars in traffic but also for other vehicles, will be reduced at least about 15% in accordance with total pilot parking time. At the same time, more effective utilization of city infrastructure and data collection of simplified parking system will provide us to gain at least 20% operating profit and minimize proportionally parking fees about 15%.
