<p>A traffic matrix is a network-wide description of the total traffic volume carried within a domain, where each element describes the volume of traffic that originates at one node and is destined for another, and corresponds to an origin-destination (OD) pair. The Davao City local government implemented a project for traffic system with road sensors and CCTV (closed-circuit television) cameras but years after, some traffic lights appear to be blinking. It then takes a long time before the traffic lights restored to its usual function. Thus, not all of the intersection of streets in Davao City has traffic control. This study aimed to utilize matrix concepts on traffic control through computations using systems of linear equation and Gauss Jordan elimination involving actual traffic vehicle density data recorded from selected 4-cornered and 3-cornered blocks of Davao City. A descriptive method, specifically a mix of field survey and computational approach was utilized. The traffic matrix created indicates that for traffic to keep flowing in the 4-cornered block, 1430, 151, and 261 cars per hour must be routed between intersections 1 and 2, intersections 3 and 2, and intersections 3 and 4, respectively in an hour. For the 3-cornered block, 200, 711 and 1094 cars per hour need to be routed between intersections 1 and 2, 3 and 2 and 1 and 3, respectively. Then, the matrix is used to know how to organize the vehicles and control their entering and leaving a street to avoid traffic jam.</p><p><strong><br /></strong></p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Matrix concept, traffic control, linear equation, Gauss Jordan, descriptive method, Davao City, Philippines</p><div> </div>

Fixed System

Nowadays, traffic light system is very important to avoid car crashes and arrange traffic load. In the Sulaimani City / Iraq, there are many traffic problems such as traffic congestion or traffic jam and the amount of time provided manually to the traffic light system. This is the main difficulty that we try to solve. The traffic lights exist but still do not manage traffic congestion due to the fixed time provided for each lane regardless of their different load. Therefore, we are proposing to change the traditional traffic system to smart traffic system (adaptive system). This paper Focuses on the existing system (fixed system), then propose the adaptive one. The main crucial side effects of the existing system are:   Emergency cases: congested traffics might block the way of emergencies for instance ambulance, which transports people to the hospital Wasting time of people generally and specially Delays, which lead people to not to be punctual, this means people arrive late to the work  Wasting more fuels as staying more in the traffics, which affects the environment by increasing pollution.

Urban Traffic Control

In a complex multiagent system, agents may have different partial information about the system’s state and the information held by other agents in the system. In a distributed urban traffic control, where each junction has an independent controller, agents that learn can benefit from exchanging information, but this exchange of information may not always be useful. In this chapter the authors analyze how agents can benefit from sharing information in an urban traffic control scenario and the consequences of this cooperation in the performance of the traffic system.

Vehicular traffic is continuously increasing around the world, especially in large urban areas. The resulting congestion has become a major concern to transportation specialists and decision makers. The existing methods for traffic management, surveillance and control are not adequately efficient in terms of performance, cost, maintenance, and support. In this paper, the design of a system that utilizes and efficiently manages traffic light controllers is presented. In particular, we present an adaptive traffic control system based on a new traffic infrastructure using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). These techniques are dynamically adaptive to traffic conditions on both single and multiple intersections. An intelligent traffic light controller system with a new method of vehicle detection and dynamic traffic signal time manipulation is used in the project. The project is also designed to control traffic over multiple intersections and follows international standards for traffic light operations. A central monitoring station is designed to monitor all access nodes..

Study Application

Transportation vehicles refer to the vehicles used to transport people's needs and goods from one area to another. Intelligent traffic signalling systems are needed due to the increase in the number of vehicles in traffic, the roads used, the insufficiency of the surrounding areas and the inability to widen these roads or construct upper / lower roads. Nowadays, there are situations where traffic control is insufficient in current density due to the traffic system mechanisms being dependent on fixed time. Therefore, some smart methods have been developed to prevent waste of time and economic problems. In this study, application of Petri Nets (PA) based on real data collected at certain times of the day for intelligent control of traffic lights at a four-way intersection. PA's performances have been compared with their classical (fixed time) performances. When the results obtained were evaluated in terms of both the number of passing vehicles and time, it was seen that the PA passed 849 vehicles in 755 seconds, 341 vehicles in 920 seconds in the classical method and a better result was obtained with PA.

The article discusses the problem of passing emergency rescue vehicles in action in urban areas with intersections controlled by traffic lights. Fast travel is necessary while striving to minimize the possibility of adverse events. Traffic lights at intersections give the opportunity to use it to pave the free road for the passage of a privileged emergency vehicle. The quick change of control signals at the intersection (paving the way) must take into account the limitations resulting from the long stop (and thus long time) of public transport vehicles in public transport. Properly generated advance information will allow (in a way not threatened with injuries to passengers) to stop before crossing the bus, tram, trolley bus. The existing concepts do not take into account the need to generate advance information in traffic lights controllers resulting from the restrictions on the stop of a public transport vehicle. The article presents the concept of introducing advance information during the creation of a free road for a rescue vehicle.

The right and appropriate system of receiving and transferring goods is needed by the company. In the process of receiving and transferring goods from the central warehouse to the branch warehouse at PDAM Tirta Kerta Raharja, Tangerang Regency, which is currently done manually is still ineffective and inaccurate because the Head of Subdivision uses receipt documents, namely PPBP and mutation of goods, namely MPPW in the form of paper as a submission media. The Head of Subdivision enters the data of receipt and mutation of goods manually and requires a relatively long time because at the time of demand for the transfer of goods the Head of Subdivision must check the inventory of goods in the central warehouse first. Therefore, it is necessary to hold a design of information systems for the receipt and transfer of goods from the central warehouse to a web-based branch warehouse that is already database so that it is more effective, efficient and accurate. With the web-based system of receiving and transferring goods that are already datatabed, it can facilitate the Head of Subdivision in inputing data on the receipt and transfer of goods and control of stock inventory so that the Sub Head of Subdivision can do it periodically to make it more effective, efficient and accurate. The method of data collection is done by observing, interviewing and studying literature from various previous studies, while the system analysis method uses the Waterfall method which aims to solve a problem and uses design methods with visual modeling that is object oriented with UML while programming using PHP and MySQL as a database.
