Abstract :
It is proved that the traffic control systems are one of the most profitable solutions of transportation problems. In this paper we present computer system, which consists of micro-simulation module and genetic based optimization module. Its aim is to improve traffic conditions in signalized intersections network. We focus on minimization of time losses and maximization of average vehicles speed during ride to guarantee the maximally smooth vehicles movement inside optimized area. We present assumptions of optimization methods as well as obtained results
