Real Time Optimized Traffic Management Algorithm for Intelligent Transportation Systems

Dynamic traffic control is the need for the ever increasing traffic, especially in the urban areas. The research work done in the area of Intelligent Transportation Systems and Traffic Management primarily focuses on determining green light duration. This research paper proposes an algorithm which not only determines green light duration dynamically but also handles the emergency vehicle management efficiently. It also handles the deadlock and starvation condition, which causes due arrival of emergency vehicle in repeated interval of time in traffic intersection. Wireless Sensor Networks technology is considered as the possible source of input.
