CONT

Traditional signal control systems use pre-stored timing plans that have been developed offline using historic data. These systems are not responsive to dynamic and volitile traffic demands, and deteriorate in performance over time. Adaptive traffic signal control systems are able to adapt to actual traffic conditions, coping with complex flow patterns and unpredictable variations. They seek continuous optimal system performance.
