  • This paper describes the effect of advice information for arriving aircraft landing order on the air traffic controller's work efficiency. The air traffic control simulator used in the experiment was modeled on the basis of the aircraft parameters from BADA, gamma-command model and the 4-dimensional trajectory using the Bezier curve. The simulation results show that advice information was helpful for the performance of the work for users who did not have the air traffic control training. On the other hand, in case of users who have experience in air traffic control training, the work efficiency was lowered when the advisory information that does not reflect the user's intention is provided. Therefore, it can be seen that the effect of improving the work efficiency through advice information can be limited depending on the skill level of the air traffic controllers and the complexity of the air traffic situation.

  • This study proposes the traffic prediction and optimal traffic control system based on cell transmission model and genetic algorithm in cloud environment. The proposed prediction and control system consists of four parts. 1) Data preprocessing module detects and imputes the corrupted data and missing data points. 2) Data-driven traffic prediction module predicts the future traffic state using Multi-level K-Nearest Neighbor (MK-NN) Algorithm with stored historical data in SQL database. 3) Online traffic simulation module simulates the future traffic state in various situations including accident, road work, and extreme weather condition with predicted traffic data by MK-NN. 4) Optimal road control module produces the control strategy for large road network with cell transmission model and genetic algorithm. The results show that proposed system can effectively reduce the Vehicle Hours Traveled upto 60%.

  • In Vessel Traffic Service, the management information on marine traffic control is almost transported by VHF. It is so difficult to exchange a lot of the related information necessary for marine traffic control exactly and in real time. Aiming at improved visualized data transporting network, we examine the methods for transporting and displaying the data on marine traffic controls. In this paper, we design the information networks established by broadcasting method and by internet method using home page in order to manage marine traffics in Masan port.

  • In this paper, we propose the fuzzy traffic control method in ABR service for the effective use of ATM link. This method, a modified version of EPRCA which is one of rate control methods in ABR service, controls the values of the transmission rates of source by using the fuzzy traffic inference based on switch buffer size and buffer variate rate. For this method, we developed a model and algorithm of the fuzzy traffic control method and a fuzzy traffic controller, after studying fuzzy and neural networks which applied to ATM traffic control and EPRCA. For the fuzzy traffic controller, we also designed a membership function, fuzzy control rules and a max-min inferencing method. We conducted a simulation and compared the link utilization of the fuzzy traffic control method with that of the EPRCA method. The results of the simulation indicated that, compared to EPRCA, the fuzzy traffic control method improves the link utilization by 2.3% in a normal distribution model and by 2.7% in the MMPP model of the source.

  • In this paper, we reviews the need and contents of aerodrome control simulator for air traffic controllers' training. In the view of managing the aviation safety, the departure and landing phases of aircraft are very important, because more than 60% of aircraft accidents and incidents have occurred in the take-off and landing phases. According to the benchmark each as practice type, simulation device and fidelity of reality of the air traffic control simulator, we have evaluated the implementation level of the domestic air traffic control simulator and checked up the current simulator's problems through the air traffic controllers' survey. Therefore, we suggest to the direction of developing a HI-FI simulator for aerodrome controllers.

  • Aviation safety issues have drawn much attention from the international community due to the growing demand for air travel. Although it is a widely accepted fact that human-related factors are closely linked to aviation safety, there is lack of understanding what roles those factors play in aviation, in the field of air traffic control in particular. It has been reported that the role of air traffic controllers significantly affects air safety. This review will discuss cognitive aspects of expertise in air traffic control including time perception, working memory, reasoning, perception, attention, scanning/vigilance, decision making, and planning with examples of how each aspect can be dealt with in performing air traffic control duties. The relevant studies in psychology have also been briefly reviewed in the interest of enhancing understanding of characteristics of air traffic control tasks and the related human factors. This review concludes with a call for more in-depth research into cognitive factors in air traffic control.

  • The current traffic signal control systems are operated depending on the pre-planned control scheme or the selected control scheme according to a period of time. The problem with these types of traffic control systems is that they can not cope with variant traffic flows appropriately. Such a problem can be difficult to solve by using binary logic. Therefore, in this 0paper, we propose a traffic signal control system which can deal wit various traffic flows quickly and effectively. The proposed controller is operated under uncertainty and in a fuzzy environment. It show the congestion of road traffic by using fuzzy logic, and it determines the length of green signal by means of a fuzzy inference engine. It modeled using petri-net to verify its validation.

  • Future high speed networks are expected to use the Asynchronous Transfer Mode(ATM), which provides desired quality of service for the various traffic types(e.g., voice, video and data). Proper traffic control scheme helps ensure efficient and fair operation of networks. In this paper, we analyze various related traffic-control strategies and propose a new traffic control scheme and ATM control architecture with an integrated buffer management method and multi-thresholds in order to solve the problem of each class's cell loss ratio and cell delay in ATM networks. In addition, we evaluate the performance improvement of the proposed traffic control scheme through simulation. As shown in the result, the proposed traffic control scheme improves cell loss ratio in proportion to the buffer size.

  • As of March 2005, the standard of traffic signal controllers became effective. The standard presents specifications and functions of a traffic signal controller which collects traffic information, sends it to the traffic control center, and controls traffic signal with adequate traffic signal timing provided by the traffic control center. Since the controllers by the previous standard lack parts compatibility and have different control functions and communication protocol, the maintenance cost has been increased. Also, some important functions like conflict detection have not worked out perfectly. To overcome these disadvantages, first of all, this standard secures hardware compatibility. Conflict detection method has been enhanced. Communication protocol to the traffic control center was included in the standard. With this standard, independent maintenance system and prompt treatment of hardware malfunctions becomes possible. Also, the unified intersection traffic control method will increase traffic safety.
