Abstract: Network-wide traffic control policies determine the optimal values for the different kinds of controllers equipped on a transportation network, with the objective of reducing delays and congestion, improving safety and reaching a target Level of Service. While models and algorithms for these problems have been extensively studied in literature, little attention has been devoted to investigating whether/how different locations, kinds (pricing controllers, traffic lights, …) and amounts of controllers in a network affect the overall performance of network-wide schemes.
