Chapter 27: Deterministic Queuing
Deterministic Queuing. Applied to Traffic Lights • Here we introduce the concept of deterministic queuing at an introductory level and then apply this concept to setting of traffic lights.
Deterministic Queuing • Deterministic Queuing – In the first situation, we consider λ(t), the arrival rate, and μ(t), the departure rate, as – deterministic. • Deterministic Arrival and Departure Rates
Deterministic Queuing • Deterministic Arrival and Departure Rates (continued) Figure 27. 1
Queuing Diagram Cumulative Arrivals available capacity for departure maximum queue = 500 available capacity for departure Figure 27. 2
Another Case • Now, the numbers were selected to make this simple; at the end of four hours the system is empty. The queue dissipated exactly at the end of four hours. But for example, suppose vehicles arrive at the rate of 1, 250/hour from t=3 to t=4.
Another Queuing Diagram Cumulative Arrivals available capacity for departure CLASS DISCUSSION What is the longest queue in this system? What is the longest individual waiting time? Figure 27. 3
Computing Total Delay Area Between Input and Output Curves Cumulative Time (Hours)
Choosing Capacity • μ (t) = 2000 • μ (t) = 1500 • μ (t) = 500 • CLASS DISCUSSION

Queue Stability • All the traffic must be dissipated during thegreen cycle. » If R + G = C (the cycle time), » then λ(R + t 0) = μt 0. » Rearranging t 0 = » If we define » Then » For stability (the “traffic intensity”),
Delay at a Traffic Signal -Considering One Direction • The total delay per cycle is d
Two Direction Analysis of Traffic Light • Flows in East-West and North-South Directions Figure 27. 7
where We can write similar expressions for D 2, D 3 , D 4. We want to minimize DT , the total delay, where
Choosing an Optimum Remembering that we want to minimize DT where To obtain the optimal R 1, we differentiate the expression for total delay with respect to R 1 (theonly unknown) and set that equal to zero.
Try a Special Case Therefore, The result, then, is This makes sense. If the flows are equal, we would expect the optimal design choice is to split the cycle in half in the two directions.
The text goes through some further mathematical derivations of other cases for the interested student.
