A Distributed Approach based on Transition Graph for Resolving Multimodal Urban Transportation Problem

All over the world, many research studies focus on developing and enhancing real-time communications between various transport stakeholders in urban environments. Such motivation can be justified by the growing importance of pollution caused by the transport sector in urban areas. In this work, we propose an approach of assistance for displacement in urban environment taking advantages of multimodal urban transportation means, where several modes of public transports are available. In addition, we also consider the possibility of using both private modes of transport and cities parking. The proposed distributed approach described in this paper is based on an abstraction of a city multimodal graph according to the available modes of public transport and road traffic and transition graph approach to move from a mode to the other mode. Numerical results are developed to justify the effectiveness of our approach.
