Abstract

This paper summarises the results of the assessment of the performance of the "Town Supervisor" which is currently operating as the core subsystem within the 5T Integrated Traffic Transport and Environment System in Turin. This assessment is carried on within the QUARTET+ project, which in turn made use of the guidelines prepared by the CONVERGE project. The 5T Town Supervisor is the subsystem in charge to monitor and estimate on-line the traffic and environment state of the city of Turin and to provide a feasible and common control strategy to the other 9 subsystems of 5T that can influence directly the traffic behaviour (UTC, PTMS, VMS). The assessment has been carried on mainly for testing the physical functioning of the system and for testing the traffic model's capability. The indicators used are computed in order to quantify the following categories: system availability, connections, interactions, traffic monitoring performance. Results have been derived using data collected in automatic ways by the system itself and comparing them with data collected through dedicated surveys.
