Emphasis is laid on the following topics:
- Data fusion (plausibility, correlation between data items, data integrity, stochastic dependencies, etc.)
- Data Mining, deployment of huge data sets (e.g. detector data) with regard to correlation and patterns
- Model based local traffic light control systems and supporting procedures
- Procedures to estimate traffic demand matrices dynamically
- Dynamical route choice and traffic assignment in road networks (with involving FCD)
- Dynamic state models of traffic jams on motorways
- Forecast procedures (short and long term)
- Optimal coordination of green waves, adaptive network-wide traffic light control
- Generation of management strategies
- Impact analysis
