Abstract

Background and Objectives: As cities are developing and the population increases significantly, one of the most important challenges for city managers is the urban transportation system. An Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) uses information, communication, and control techniques to assist the transportation system. The ITS includes a large number of traffic sensors that collect high volumes of data to provide information to support and improve traffic management operations. Due to the high traffic volume, the classic methods of traffic control are unable to satisfy the requirements of the variable, and the dynamic nature of traffic. Accordingly, Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things meet this demand as a decentralized solution.
Methods: This paper presents an optimal method to find the best route and compare it with the previous methods. The proposed method has three phases. First, the area should be clustered under servicing and, second, the requests will be predicted using the time series neural network. then, the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) will be run to select the best route.
Results: To evaluate the parameters, different scenarios were designed and implemented. The simulation results show that the service time parameter of the proposed method is improved by about 18% and 40% in comparison with the Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) and Random Movement methods. Also, the difference between this parameter in the two methods of Harris Hawks Optimizer (HHO) and WOA is about 5% and the HHO has performed better.
Conclusion: The interaction of AI and IoT can lead to solutions to improve ITS and to increase client satisfaction. We use WOA to improve time servicing and throughput. The Simulation results show that this method can be increase satisfaction for clients.

LETTERS TO EDITOR

Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering Innovations (JECEI) welcomes letters to the editor for the post-publication discussions and corrections which allows debate post publication on its site, through the Letters to Editor. Letters pertaining to manuscript published in JECEI should be sent to the editorial office of JECEI within three months of either online publication or before printed publication, except for critiques of original research. Following points are to be considering before sending the letters (comments) to the editor.


[1] Letters that include statements of statistics, facts, research, or theories should include appropriate references, although more than three are discouraged.

[2] Letters that are personal attacks on an author rather than thoughtful criticism of the author’s ideas will not be considered for publication.

[3] Letters can be no more than 300 words in length.

[4] Letter writers should include a statement at the beginning of the letter stating that it is being submitted either for publication or not.

[5] Anonymous letters will not be considered.

[6] Letter writers must include their city and state of residence or work.

[7] Letters will be edited for clarity and length.
