Although the traffic and transit assignment processes are intertwined, the interactions between them are usually ignored in practice, especially for large-scale networks. In this paper, we build a simulation-based traffic and transit assignment model that preserves the interactions between the two assignment processes for the large-scale network of the Greater Toronto Area during the morning peak. This traffic assignment model is dynamic, user-equilibrium seeking, and includes surface transit routes. It utilizes the congested travel times, determined by the dynamic traffic assignment, rather than using predefined timetables. Unlike the static transit assignment models, the proposed transit model distinguishes between different intervals within the morning peak by using the accurate demand, transit schedule, and time-based road level-of-service. The traffic and transit assignment models are calibrated against actual field observations. The resulting dynamic model is suitable for testing different demand management strategies that impose dynamic changes on multiple modes simultaneously.

In Large-scale network applications, transmission data collection is the basis for audit, analysis and evaluation of systems and users. Transmission data collection can be carried out either on the link line or on the host where the network application is running. Collecting at different locations, the types of data acquired are different, thus need different processing. This paper first analyzes the different transmission data collection methods, their advantages as well as disadvantages. Then analyzes the structure of those network applications that are basing on transmission dynamic linked library, promotes the intermediate DLL method. Finally through an example it shows how to define the intermediate DLL to collect transferred data on application layer without affecting the original system function.
