Mathematical application for departure model

In the light of todays high traffic volume, it is crucial to anticipate the traffic flow on traffic lights controlled intersections. Without this knowledge, it would be impossible to control the traffic in complicated hubs, such as, for instance, those in Prague. One of the characteristics, through which we can describe dynamics of vehicle movement on traffic lights controlled intersections, is the interval between departure of a vehicle from the space in front of the stop line and the arrival to the actual stop line. This is called a departure model. Our aim is, first, to create an appropriate mathematical application, which would take into account individual variables influencing departure of individual vehicles and determine the dependence among these variables. Second to create such a departure model, which would, on one hand, correspond as much as possible to the contemporary traffic situations, but on the other hand, be more exact for specific intersections.

Prediction system of occupancy of parking spaces

This paper presents the result of the project TA02031411 - transportation system which provides information about the predicted occupancy of parking spaces to truck drivers. Providing this information leads to optimizing the use of existing parking spaces on the highway network and also makes it easier for drivers to deciding on a suitable location for parking, which ultimately contributes to the fluency and safety of traffic.

Process analysis of Transport Ticketing and Information Systems for Czech public transport

Due to the high level of development of integrated transport systems in the Czech Republic the need for standardization in this area is constantly becoming urgent. The article deals with the process analysis of a typical fare collection and information system for public transport in the Czech Republic. Results of the analysis are important for the assessment of systems interfaces from standardization point of view.

Service quality of train system for visually impaired passengers

An integral part of the concept of “smart cities” are information and orientation systems for visually impaired persons. This paper presents the results of the research of functionality trains system for visually impaired passengers in the Prague.
