Feedback Ramp Metering in Intelligent Transportation Systems is the
first book on the topic of using feedback control (also called real-time
traffic control or adaptive control by some traffic engineers) in ramp
metering. It provides traffic theory fundamentals and then the design of
feedback controllers for isolated and coordinated ramp metering
problems. Software simulation code in Matlab and Paramics is provided in
the book so that the reader can get a hands-on feel for the various
algorithms. With a large number of examples, illustrations, and original
problems, this book is excellent as a textbook or reference book for a
senior or graduate level course on the subject, as well as a reference
for researchers in related fields.
