Abstract
A computer-implemented dynamic road stretch dividing method, the method comprising: determining a current lane distribution of partitions of a road stretch; calculating a new lane distribution of the road stretch to ameliorate traffic based on a pragmatic factor; changing an alignment of the partitions of the current lane distribution to obtain the new lane distribution; and updating the pragmatic factor based on at least one of an external policy and a constraint input by a user.
Claims3
A computer-implemented dynamic road stretch dividing method, the method comprising:
- determining a current lane distribution of partitions of a road stretch;
- calculating a new lane distribution of the road stretch to ameliorate traffic based on a pragmatic factor,
- changing an alignment of the partitions of the current lane distribution to obtain the new lane distribution;
- and
- updating the pragmatic factor based on at least one of an external policy and a constraint input by a user.
A computer program product for dynamic road stretch dividing, the computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform:
- determining a current lane distribution of partitions of a road stretch;
- calculating a new lane distribution of the road stretch to ameliorate traffic based on a pragmatic factor,
- changing an alignment of the partitions of the current lane distribution to obtain the new lane distribution;
- and
- updating the pragmatic factor based on at least one of an external policy and a constraint input by a user.
A dynamic road stretch dividing system, said system comprising:
- a processor, and
- a memory, the memory storing instructions to cause the processor to perform:
- determining a current lane distribution of partitions of a road stretch;
- calculating a new lane distribution of the road stretch to ameliorate traffic based on a pragmatic factor,
- changing an alignment of the partitions of the current lane distribution to obtain the new lane distribution;
- and
- updating the pragmatic factor based on at least one of an external policy and a constraint input by a user.
