摘要：	In this project, a prototype knowledge-based expert system (KBES) integrated with a Geographical Information System (GIS) is developed. Geomedia Pro is used as the GIS interface for data entry. A software bridge is also implemented to ensure swift data exchange between Synchro, which is a commercial signal optimization software package used by NJDOT, and the developed prototype. This integration will allow the users to transfer intersection data between Synchro and the prototype KBES tool in an efficient way. The rule base of the prototype KBES was developed using the information that exists in the literature, including surveys conducted by other researchers and the simulation studies conducted by the Rutgers research team. The performance of three distinct adaptive control strategies were assessed by using a macroscopic and a microscopic simulation tool namely, PARAMICS. Prototypes for reactive (SCOOT-like), case-based / reactive (SCATS-like ) and proactive / predictive (OPAC-like algorithms), each using a different control logic, were developed. These prototypes were tested for various well-calibrated New Jersey intersections. The outcome of these simulation studies were then used to develop general rules in terms of the effectiveness of using adaptive control strategies under various network and traffic conditions.
