Abstract :
A distributed software environment that enables modular augmentation of traffic data processing capability in support of traffic/transportation telematics applications is presented. The paper reports experiences with a portable travel information system which illustrates the point that the benefit derived from the UTC infrastructure can be significantly enhanced through distributed applications
