SIGSIGN: A PHASE-BASED OPTIMISATION PROGRAM FOR INDIVIDUAL SIGNAL-CONTROLLED JUNCTIONS
J P Silcock, A P Sang · Traffic engineering & control · 1990
SIGSIGN is a microcomputer program which, given a pattern of traffic, will provide three sets of signal timings which are optimal according to each of the following criteria: (a) critical cycle time; (b) maximum practical capacity; and (c) minimum total junction delay. This article discusses the computer program and the advantages of the phase-based method and looks at some example applications.
