Abstract :
With the increased dissemination and computing power of mobile devices, it is now possible to execute distributed artificial intelligence applications for various situations: intelligent routing using algorithms, planning, distributed optimization of traffic lights. Our solution provides a complex way of integrating intelligent traffic simulation with a distributed traffic management system that is both useful for the drivers and for the persons in charge with traffic light adjustment in urban regions. At the top lays a desktop application that provides the main features and has a distributed built-in server to process the data. This one is connected with a web application capable of showing the optimum route for a point of interest. The output is adjusted accordingly with a set of parameters related to weather conditions, road restrictions, driver´s average speed or specific hour intervals. The application that runs on mobile phones it´s very useful to collect the data that will be stored daily in the database as trace logs.
