ABSTRACT
Traffic congestion adversely impacts our lives. Traffic estimation resorting to mobile (crowdsensing) probes is a challenging task. We present key challenges for accurate and real-time traffic estimation resorting to crowdsensing data, namely data sparsity, user trip diversity, population bias, data quality, among others. We propose solutions to address some of these issues and demonstrate the relevance of others through an exploratory data analysis.

A new scheme for traffic estimation and resource allocation for bandwidth brokers
This paper is motivated by the concern of a multi-service network provider who plans to offer quality of service guarantees to users. A bandwidth broker acts as the resource manager for each network provider. Neighboring bandwidth brokers communicate ...
An adaptive QoS control scheme based on traffic estimation for efficient multimedia services in wireless access networks
ICHIT'11: Proceedings of the 5th international conference on Convergence and hybrid information technologyIn this paper, an enhanced bandwidth allocation scheme according to traffic estimation for adaptive QoS control is proposed with the use of the IEEE 802.11e standard in the wireless access network. The interface between the core network and the access ...
Performance of estimated traffic matrices in traffic engineering
SIGMETRICS '03: Proceedings of the 2003 ACM SIGMETRICS international conference on Measurement and modeling of computer systemsWe consider the performance of estimated traffic matrices in traffic engineering. More precisely, we first optimize the routing in an IP backbone to minimize congestion with the estimated traffic matrix. We then test the performance of the resulting ...
