Hot Spot Management (HSM) is selected as the ITS application for this study. The various HSM tasks and components are identified, and the detection, verification, and response techniques are discussed. A case study is presented for the introduction of ITS to Lebanon, within the context of local constraints. A simulation-based evaluation of the potential benefits of HSM ...

Consideration of the characteristics of the Beirut, Lebanon network have led us to identify the management of incidents as a ...
