Abstract

In spite of numerous road management schemes and developed infrastructure the society nowadays still faces the problem of highly congested roads due to the increasing traffic demand. The focus of this paper is to develop a complex and integrated system that addresses the challenges of dynamic traffic assignment in modern times. We built a design for a Personal Advanced Traveller Assistant (PTA). The main purpose of PTA is to give routing advices depending on the users preferences and the available capacity in the network. The system incorporates a dynamic traffic algorithm that employs a prediction model of future travelling time. The prediction model that the algorithm uses is based on historical data. To conclude, we successfully implemented a working prototype that uses various technologies such as Java, the Open Street Map API for rendering the map or J2ME for the mobile phone client.
