ABSTRACT
Any shortest path finding problem can be regarded as a design problem since it requires the design of an algorithm which can be implemented as an information system-based solution. This paper addresses a dynamic shortest path finding problem in urban road networks that has time dependent characteristics such as time windows for allowing traffic in a specific time as well as traffic operational characteristics such as U-turn and left-turn prohibition. This paper is motivated by the development of Advanced Traveler Information Systems(ATIS) in the context of Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS). The transportation network analysis should be done with these ...
