  • Abstract
    To convey the dynamic information related to traffic conditions in various parts of a city, we propose an environment utilizing the technology of smart phones to provide information anywhere and anytime. Called ";The Interactive Traffic Beat Project,"; it uses a Web-based service to deliver this information to people through their cell phones at the right time so that valuable time can be saved and the chaos on the roads can be managed.
