Description
This unique text focuses on the key engineering skills required to practice traffic engineering in a modern setting. It includes material on the latest standards and criteria of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (2003 Edition and forthcoming 2010 Edition), the Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (2004 Edition), the Highway Capacity Manual (2000 Edition and forthcoming 2010 Edition), and other critical references. It also presents both fundamental theory and a broad range of applications to modern problems.

Features

• Critical blend of theory and methodology shows students the direct application of traffic engineering concepts to real-world situations
• Accessible format gives students a clear and logical presentation
• Numerous sample problems and illustrations demonstrate the procedures and methodologies as they are used in practice
• Important computer programs demonstrate solutions throughout the text
• Coverage of underlying models highlights delay prediction, saturation flow rates, and the capacity of various types of facilities
• Presentation of signalization and signal analysis explains the underlying principles of the models that are used
• Emphasis on modern data collection tools and methodologies provides students with the details of how modern technology is used in the collection, reduction, and analysis of data

Description
Soft computing is a branch of computer science that deals with a family of methods that imitate human intelligence. This is done with the goal of creating tools that will contain some human-like capabilities (such as learning, reasoning and decision-making).
This book covers the entire gamut of soft computing, including fuzzy logic, rough sets, artificial neural networks, and various evolutionary algorithms. It offers a learner-centric approach where each new concept is introduced with carefully designed examples/instances to train the learner.
 

Features

  • Excellent pedagogy
  • 80 unsolved and 230 solved questions
  • More than 500 figures
  • MCQs at the end of every chapter; more than 300 MCQs in total
  • MATLAB implementation
  • Summary at the end of every chapter
  • Case studies to help the students get a practical perspective of the subject.
