Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs for ...

The relentless rise in network traffic rates and the ongoing shift from circuit-switched to packet-based architectures promises to bring a variety of new challenges to communications-systems design.

Two major problems afflict automobile-based transportation systems in the U.S. and around the world: traffic accidents and congestion. About half a million people are killed each year in traffic ...

Scientists have developed a new mathematical methodology to monitor traffic flow so that medium and long-term forecasts can be made. One of the key aspects of the methodology applied is its capacity ...

Route analytics vendor Packet Design, whose technology has won the company partnerships with HP and Cisco, is set to unveil a set of appliances designed to augment the routing data collected by its ...
