The local ramp metering strategy ALINEA is the only available feedback strategy that is based on powerful and robust automatic control methods. A number of modifications and extensions were proposed to address specific issues and needs not covered by ALINEA. More specifically, the following new local ramp metering strategies are presented: FL-ALINEA is a flow-based strategy, UP-ALINEA is an upstream-occupancy-based version, and UF-ALINEA is an upstream-flow-based strategy. X-ALINEA/Q is a combination of any of the preceding strategies with efficient rampqueue control to avoid interference with surface street traffic. The new local ramp metering strategies are discussed with respect to their features, their limitations, and their relation to available strategies. Macroscopic simulation investigations demonstrate the capabilities and limitations of the new strategies.

Work class remote operated vehicles (ROVs) are generally equipped with underwater manipulators and are widely used in underwater intervention and maintenance tasks. As the load of underwater operation is relatively heavy, most commercial underwater manipulators are hydraulically actuated and are not equipped with any sensor for joint angles to keep their architectures compact. Therefore, the automatic control methods widely used in industrial robots cannot be simply applied to underwater manipulators. In this paper, an estimation method on joint angles of manipulator is presented, in which several markers are arranged on the arm links and positioned from the corresponding cameras; consequently, the joint angles of the manipulator are estimated. The simulation results show that under typical optical vision positioning error (RMS: 5 mm), the positioning error of the end effector can be estimated as about 10 mm (RMS), which means that the proposed estimation method is feasible for the state estimation for automatic control of underwater manipulators.
