A bus transport system that acquires collective intelligence through information exploitation

This project studies bus systems with periodic boundary conditions using a modified Nagel-Schreckenberg (NaSch) Cellular Automata (CA) simulation model. We propose a self-organising method to control speed of the buses using passenger occupancy information of buses and bus stops. The study was done...
