A New Approach to Intelligent-Oriented Analysis and Design of Urban Traffic Control: Case of a Traffic Light

The aim of this work is to propose a modeling method for the industrial urban traffic control based on the agent paradigm. Thus, from a detailed functional specification of the urban traffic, we elaborate a method of analysis and design of the traffic light system in five levels. First of all, a problem description phase that allows us to define the problem. Then, a requirement analysis phase that allows us to describe the needs and identify the scenario to be studied. After, the analysis phase that allows us to design the structure of the system, at several levels of abstraction, and to focus on the interactions and behaviors of the components. The Agentification phase that permits us to go from the component to the agent. And finally, the implementation and evaluation phase.
