Abstract

The current contribution gives an overview on the different complex and concatenated aspects and problems of traffic control in large urban environments with a high population and traffic density. It intends to show that without innovative, Internet based technologies no suitable simulation, analysis and control of the urban traffic situation in a big city can be realized, especially under the conditions of third world countries.

Beside the introduction of a new, GRID based simulation it will be conceptually discussed, how existing infrastructural and other low cost concepts may be used to achieve significant improvements for every member of the local population community.
