Abstract

The rapid growth in terms of the availability of transportation data provides great potential for the introduction of emerging data-driven methodologies into transportation-related research and development efforts. However, advanced data-driven models, such as artificial-intelligence based approaches, usually contain complicated modeling structures and require strict data formats along with a very complex execution environment. It is thus often challenging to deploy and implement such data-driven models in a real-world environment. Moreover, a full-fledged application requires not only well developed and calibrated models, but also efficient connections with back end infrastructure such as large databases and front end utilities, such as a user-interface. This paper introduces a novel platform which provides an integrated architecture for deploying multi-purpose real-time traffic management applications. Inspired by the concept of modular design in software system development, this paper proposes a modular platform allowing users to customize their mission specific needs and preferences. The developed platform is capable of incorporating flexible user-provided models and/or data with the ultimate goal of deploying them as a complete application ready for real-world use. To illustrate this novel modular software system concept, this paper presents a work zone management and coordination application that is built upon the developed implementation platform to provide useful decision support to traffic engineers.
