  • This study proposes marine traffic volume estimation method considering ship speed, a factor excluded from the existing method. Ten days of GICOMS marine traffic data from Pyeongtaek and Dangjin ports was applied to this study. As a result, converted traffic volume with the proposed estimation method showed an increase of 4.41 (${\pm}0.99$) times or decrease of 0.59 (${\pm}0.04$) at most, compared with the existing estimation method. Average marine traffic congestion for each time applying the proposed estimation method showed an increase of 1.43 (${\pm}0.10$) compared with the existing estimation method. The maximum marine traffic congestion for each time was 1.62 (${\pm}0.34$) times higher compared with the existing estimation method. Marine traffic peak time, defined as the highest point of marine traffic congestion, was evaluated to be different from that of the existing method because of distribution of vessel speed. In conclusion, considering ship speed is necessary when estimating marine traffic volume to produce a practical estimate of marine traffic capacity.

  • Now days, it is based on GIS and GPS, it can search for the shortest path and estimation of arrival time by using the internet and cell phone to driver. But, even though good car navigation system does not create which is the shortest path when there average vehicle speed is 10 -20 Km. Therefore In order to reduce vehicle waiting time and average vehicle speed, we suggest optimal green time algorithm using fuzzy adaptive control , where there are different traffic intersection length and lane. In this paper, it will be able to forecast the optimal traffic Information, estimation of destination arrival time, under construction road, and dangerous road using internet.

  • The purpose of Speed limit at sea is to keep harbor calmness, to maintain efficient traffic flow and to prevent maritime accidents. The Korean Regional Maritime Affairs and Port Office(KRMAPO) specified and enforced the ship's speed limits at the 19 harbors around the Korean coasts. However, problems have been raised to the adequacy of speed limits. This paper made a research on the speed limit set standards, analyzed vessel traffic survey and the dilemma on the specified speed limits imposed by KRMAPO. The result of this study has shown an overall average of 48 % violation rate on speed limit with passenger ships and large vessels of more than 5,000 tons having higher violation rate. Average speed was higher than the limit speed in some harbors and deviation of 4.2 to 5.2 knots was investigated. Further, harbors having higher average speed also have higher deviation accident incidence. Therefore, this paper had confirmed that there is a need for institutional review and improvement of Korea's port and fairways speed traffic management.

  • Changes in road infrastructure affect driving patterns and pollutant emission characteristics. we analyzed the changes in driving patterns and pollutant emission characteristics of the driving route via measured driving patterns at year 2009 and 2016. Since 2009, there has been an increase in population and traffic demand, including residential areas and industrial facilities. Traffic conditions were improved such as the opening of the highway Inter-Change to Seoul and the construction of underground driveway. As a result, the average vehicle speed increased. More detail comparisons have made on the changes of the underground driveway section and the crossroad section, which are expected to have significant changes in the transportation infrastructure. The vehicle speed distribution of the underground driveway changed from low speed to high speed, and the increase of the time spent at the high speed and high load caused the increase of NOx emissions. The vehicle speed also increased at the crossroad section, and the consequence NOx and $CO_2$ emissions decreased. It is mainly because the decreased time spent at idle, which results from the proper traffic demand management at this area.

  • As various social problems occur due to increasing traffic accidents, the government has setup and executed strong safety policies. As a result, the number of traffic accidents and the death toll have been decreasing in recent years. However, the setup and execution of the various policies for reducing traffic accidents cost much, so it is necessary to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of each policy. In the present study, enforcement by means of an unmanned over-speed enforcement system, the enforcement effect of which was proven good compared to the cost required for traffic enforcement, is compared with enforcement by policemen. As a result of the comparison, the average speed was 82.66 km/h before the use of unmanned systems and policemen; the average speed with manned enforcement was 70.57 km/h; and the average speed with unmanned systems was 67.85 km/h. The speed limit violation rate was 65% before the use of unmanned systems and policemen; 32% with manned enforcement; and 15% with unmanned systems. Considering the kinds of vehicles, the average speed and violation rate were highest among private cars, then vans, and then trucks.. Considering lanes. The accident rate was estimated based on the above results, and the input cost-to-advantage was estimated. The annual cost-to-advantage was estimated by comparing the above estimated values with the conditions before the unmanned over-speed enforcement system. Subsequently, the enforcement by policemen showed a negative advantage of 76,130,590 won, and the enforcement by the unmanned system showed a positive advantage of 38,577,670 won.

  • In this paper, we propose a framework to study how to route packets efficiently in multipath communication networks. Two traffic congestion control techniques, namely, flow assignment and packet scheduling, have been investigated. The flow assignment mechanism defines an optimal splitting of data traffic on multiple disjoint paths. The resequencing delay and the usage of the resequencing buffer can be reduced significantly by properly scheduling the sending order of all packets, say, according to their expected arrival times at the destination. To illustrate our model, and without loss of generality, Gaussian distributed end-to-end path delays are used. Our analytical results show that the techniques are very effective in reducing the average end-to-end path delay, the average packet resequencing delay, and the average resequencing buffer occupancy for various path configurations. These promising results can form a basis for designing future adaptive multipath protocols.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of downward speed limit of urban arterial roads at 29 sites in Busan Metropolitan Police Agency to reduce road traffic accidents from '10 to '15. As a result of analyzing the traffic accidents occurred for 1~3 years after the decrease in the speed limit, the number of traffic accidents decreased by 3.09% and the number of injured persons decreased by 8.76%, but the number of deaths decreased by 36.73% The results of this study are as follows. The average speed reduction rate of 6.31km/h was decreased by investigating the change of the vehicle speed before and after the downward speed limit, and the change of average speed was statistically significant in most of the sections. The rate of compliance with the speed limit increased by 10.26% p, which is considered to have greatly improved overall traffic safety. A survey conducted by residents near the target area with a lower speed limit showed that 57.9% of the respondents felt the driving speed of the vehicle was lowered. However, this project was focused on vehicles with limited speed road signs and traffic safety signs, Only 25.8% of respondents said walking safety was improved. In the future, it is necessary to consider the safety of pedestrians by improving roads around roads such as road curvature and separation. In addition, there is a clear positive result in terms of decreasing the fatal accidents in the downward speed limit zone of Busan Metropolitan Subway. However, more detailed analysis is needed for the 29 accidents. Therefore, it is expected that traffic practitioners will be able to utilize it as a basis to increase the accident reduction effect by setting an appropriate speed limit based on the easy and objective grounds.

  • Travel speed is an important parameter for measuring road traffic and incident detection system. In this paper I suggests a model developed for estimating reliable and accurate average roadway link travel speeds using image processing sensor. This method extracts the vehicles from the video image from CCTV, tracks the moving vehicles using deep neural network, and extracts traffic information such as link travel speeds and volume. The algorithm estimates link travel speeds using a robust data-fusion procedure to provide accurate link travel speeds and traffic information to the public. In the field tests, the new model performed better than existing methods.

  • This study was reviewed the noise reduction effects with installation of 'point to point speed camera' for controlling the speed of the car. The multiple regression analysis was performed to know how the relationship between the noise level and these parameters, such as measured traffic volume and rate of heavy vehicle and weighted average speed was changed with and without the 'point to point speed camera'. In the analysis results shows that the less traffic volume, the more noise reduction effect has been increased and the more traffic volume, the more noise reduction effect has been reduced. And noise reduction effects by the 'point to point speed camera' was different from each measured point. The cause of the difference was determined that inadequate 'point to point speed camera' position to see the effect of noise reduction. It is determined to require a more study to improve the noise reduction effects of the 'point to point speed camera' such as the camera position adjustment.
