Fantastic thread, if I had decided to do any other discipline of engineering I think it would have been traffic. Requesting Coordination 102. The time-space diagrams illustrate how this works on a one dimensional plane, but what about at the intersection of large roads? Is there a way to render this in 3D or a better way than to just have two separate diagrams viewed in parallel? What are the metrics used and how are they weighted against each other? I'm thinking of a situation like if you can increase traffic by x cars per hour by making a few people wait an extra 30 seconds, versus improving it 1.5x per hour by making them wait 2 minutes. Everything here in San Diego is based on sensors, is there a lot of data fed back to a central database for optimization? I feel like with so much continuous data collection it should be trivial to write algorithms to minimize wait times.
