Abstract

For several decades, urban congestion causes various problems such us pollution, road wares, and congestion in intersections which deteriorates the quality of life of citizens who live in big cities. Different methods proposed to reduce urban congestion, notably traffic regulation that attend tremendous attention recently. In past years, the usage of tools from artificial intelligence, particularly distributed methods and multi-agent systems, which allow to design new methods for traffic regulation. In this context, a Multi-Agent approach for intersection management system based on the principle of trajectory reservation has been proposed to reduce the travel time average and air pollution.
