Abstract: In this disclosure, collaborative multi-agent-based TST is presented with dedicated intersection controllers that include software agents which read local and remote detection systems and then collaboratively optimize signal timing phases by considering the feedback of all controller agents that may be affected by a change. The disclosure also presents an augmented system which considers network input from handheld remote devices to update certain traffic light phase information and adapt to emerging emergency situations.

Abstract: Customizable interfacing agents, systems, and methods are provided. In one embodiment, a method for interfacing a user to service providers includes receiving a set of user attributes associated, with a user to form a user profile, receiving a request for data from the user, and sending the request to one or more service providers. The method also includes receiving response data from the one or more service providers in response to sending the request to the one or more service providers. The method also includes filtering the response data from the one or more service providers using the user profile to form user-customized response data, and presenting the user-customized response data to the user.
