Abstract:

In this paper,by applying the discrete event dynamic system modeling method a Jackson queueing network model is established to study the effects of opening residential area on road capacity with two examples. The road traffic states in surrounding area are deeply analyzed by using some performance measures of Jackson queueing networks.Based on our results,some suggestions about whether or not to open residential area according to the environment of surroundings,road traffic flow,road capacity,convenience to the transportation of citizens and the safety are provided.

Key words: Jackson queueing networks, Performance index, Opening redidential area, Road capacity
