Abstract

This is the first treatment of vehicular traffic flow from a mathematical point of view with an emphasis on the theories of queuing and mathematical probability. Two introductory chapters summarise distribution and transform theory and prove the basic formulas for a single server queued In subsequent chapters the two-dimensional stochastic process is defined and queuing theory is applied to it. An extensive bibliography and reference list is provided. Only a slight prior knowledge of calculus and some intuitive understanding the theory of probability is assumed. The book is invaluable for the concentration of information here to fore scattered in many different publications.
