Towards a unified Evaluation of Traffic Light Algorithms

Within the COLOMBO project, modern traffic surveillance and traffic light control algorithms based on data obtained from vehicular communications are developed. An evaluation of existing descriptions of traffic light evaluation show that both, common measurement definitions as well as standardised simulation scenarios are missing. We present a definition of measurement methodology based on earlier projects, namely iTETRIS and FESTA. Additionally, the scenarios under development are presented, including basic, synthetic ones, as well as some that represent real-world networks
