DaTiLis: distributed traffic light simulator

A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science.
Degree awarded with distinction on 4 December 1996. Johannesburg 1996. / The problem with existing traffic light systems is that they are static and unable to
respond to dynamic changes in traffic flow patterns. This report discusses an approach
using distributed AI techniques to allow the control system to respond dynamically to
the changes in the flow patterns.

A simulated system (Datilis) has been developed, The design of the system is based
on the assumption that maximising throughput at individual intersections will result in
improved overall performance. The results generated and discussed in this report
support this hypothesis.
