Abstract for Project 1035733:Addressing Design and Human Factors Challenges in Cyber-Transportation Systems This project has two closely related objectives. The first is to design and evaluate new Cyber Transportation Systems (CTS) applications for improved traffic safety and traffic operations. The second is to design and develop an integrated traffic-driving-networking simulator. The project takes a multi-disciplinary approach that combines cyber technologies, transportation engineering and human factors. While transportation serves indispensible functions to society, it does have its own negative impacts in terms of accidents, congestion, pollution, and energy consumption. To improve traffic safety, the project will develop and evaluate novel algorithms and protocols for prioritization, delivery and fusion of various warning messages so as to reduce drivers? response time and workload, prevent conflicting warnings, and minimize false alarms. To improve traffic operations, the project will focus on the design of next generation traffic management and control algorithms for both normal and emergency operations (e.g. during inclement weather and evacuation scenarios). Both human performance modeling methods and human subjects? experimental methods will be used to address the human element in this research. As the design and evaluation of CTS applications requires an effective development and testing platform linking the human, transportation and cyber elements, the project will also design and develop a simulator that combines the main features of a traffic simulator, a networking simulator and a driving simulator. The integrated simulator will allow a human driver to control a subject vehicle in a virtual environment with realistic background traffic, which is capable of communicating with the driver and other vehicles with CTS messages. Background traffic will be controlled by a realistic driver model based on our human factors research that accounts for CTS messages? impact on driver behavior. Intellectual Merits: The project explicitly considers human factors in the design and evaluation of CTS safety and operations applications, a topic which has not received adequate attention. Moreover, the proposed integrated simulator represents a first-of-a-kind simulator with unique features that can reduce the design and evaluation costs of new CTS applications.Broader Impacts: The proposed research can improve the safety, efficiency and environmental-friendless of transportation systems, which serve as the very foundation of modern societies and directly affects the quality of life. The integrated simulator will be used as a tool for teenage and elderly driver education and training, and to inspire minority, middle and high school students to pursue careers in math, science, and computer-related fields

项目1035733的摘要：解决网络传输系统中的设计和人为因素挑战。该项目具有两个密切相关的目标。首先是设计和评估新的网络运输系统（CTS）应用程序，以改善交通安全和交通运营。第二个是设计和开发集成的交通驾驶网络模拟器。该项目采用多学科方法，结合了网络技术，运输工程和人为因素。 尽管运输对社会具有不可或缺的功能，但它确实在事故，拥塞，污染和能源消耗方面具有自身​​的负面影响。为了提高交通安全性，该项目将开发和评估新颖的算法和协议，以确定各种警告消息的优先级，交付和融合以减少驱动因素？响应时间和工作量，防止警告冲突，并最大程度地减少错误警报。 为了改善交通运营，该项目将重点介绍下一代交通管理和正常操作的控制算法（例如，在恶劣天气和疏散场景中）。人类绩效建模方法和人类受试者既是？实验方法将用于解决这项研究中的人类因素。由于CTS应用程序的设计和评估需要一个有效的开发和测试平台，将人，运输和网络元素连接起来，该项目还将设计和开发一个模拟器，该模拟器结合了交通模拟器，网络模拟器和驱动模拟器的主要功能。集成的模拟器将允许人类驾驶员在具有现实背景流量的虚拟环境中控制主体车辆，该操作能够与驾驶员和其他带有CTS消息的车辆进行通信。 背景流量将由基于我们的人为因素研究的现实驱动程序模型控制，该研究涉及CTS消息？对驾驶员行为的影响。 智力优点：该项目明确考虑了CTS安全和操作应用的设计和评估中的人为因素，这一主题尚未得到充分关注。 此外，拟议的集成模拟器代表具有独特功能的首个模拟器，可以降低新的CTS应用程序的设计和评估成本。Broader的影响：拟议的研究可以提高安全性，效率和环境不适的运输系统，这是现代社会的基础，并直接影响着质量的质量。 综合模拟器将用作青少年和老年驾驶员教育和培训的工具，并激发少数群体，中学和高中生从事数学，科学和计算机相关领域的职业
