ROBLES, Daniel; NANEZ, Pablo  y  QUIJANO, Nicanor. Urban Traffic Control and Simulation in Colombia: Literature Review. rev.ing. [online]. 2009, n.29, pp.59-69. ISSN 0121-4993.

The current mobility conditions in Colombia give place to questions about the suitability of the traffic control strategies applied on the Colombian urban networks. Therefore, a review of the control strategies and simulation platforms used in Colombia and around the world is shown. This is done to characterize the level of development of the country, in terms of research and implementation of such control strategies and, furthermore, to formulate proposals oriented towards the improvement of the Colombian urban mobility.

Palabras clave : Intelligent transportation systems; road traffic; simulation; traffic control; traffic engineering; traffic light signal control; urban traffic control.
