Deliberative Self-Organizing Traffic Lights with Elementary Cellular Automata by Jorge L. Zapotecatl, David A. Rosenblueth, Carlos Gershenson

“…At each intersection, a computer receives information across a data network from the computers of the neighboring blocks and runs a self-organizing method to control traffic lights. Our simulations showed a superior performance for our approach compared with a traditional method (a green wave) and a similar performance (close to optimal) compared with a self-organizing method using sophisticated sensors but at a lower cost. …”
