This paper presents a coupling of an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) with a discontinuous Galerkin-based, two-dimensional circulation model (DG ADCIRC-2DDI) to improve the state estimation of tidal hydrodynamics including water surface elevations and depth-integrated velocities. The methodology in this paper using EnKF perturbs the modeled hydrodynamics and bottom friction parameterization in the model while assimilating data with inherent error, and demonstrates a capability to apply EnKF within DG ADCIRC-2DDI for data assimilation. Parallel code development presents a unique aspect of the approach taken and is briefly described in the paper, followed by an application to a real estuarine system, the lower St. Johns River in north Florida, for the state estimation of tidal hydrodynamics. To test the value of gauge observations for improving state estimation, a tide modeling case study is performed for the lower St. Johns River successively using one of the four available tide gauging stations in model-data comparison. The results are improved simulations of water surface elevations and depth-integrated velocities using DG ADCIRC-2DDI with EnKF, both locally where data are available and non-locally where data are not available. The methodology, in general, is extensible to other modeling and data applications, for example, the use of remote sensing data, and specifically, can be readily applied as is to study other tidal systems.

This paper addresses the questions of high-level system modelling using heterogeneous multi-tool modelling environment on parallel multi-core processing systems for simulation acceleration. The modelling technique has been applied for high-level validation of a high-precision Indoor Positioning System for Motion Analysis (IPS-MA) developed in the Central Institute Electronic Systems (ZEA-2) of the Research Center Juelich GmbH. The heterogeneous modelling environment has been built using an implementation-level model designed in Matlab Simulink, a verification model for describing the system environment using Modelica language, and Julia language for automatic generation of binding modelling environment and parallelizing the simulation of the overall model. The approach showed a good flexibility in system description and verification in the multi-instrument modelling environment and a good performance gain due to simulation parallelism.

Over the past decades, group-based control has become one of the most popular signal technologies being applied in many cities around the world. LHOVRA control is one of such group-based controls widely employed in Scandinavian countries. While several previous studies showed that group-based control outperforms stage-based control in many aspects, implementation and evaluation of signal controllers are complicated in a real application. In addition, little effort has been put in optimizing such group-based controllers in traffic management practice. This study implements generic group-based control in an object-oriented software framework, while a software-in-the-loop simulation is developed to integrate the signal controller with an open-source traffic simulator, SUMO. Also, stochastic optimization is applied to generate optimal signal parameters according to different settings of objective. In particular, part of the study is to improve the computational performance of the optimization process by parallelized simulation runs. Test-based experiments are finally carried out to evaluate traffic and optimize its impact on a small traffic network in Stockholm.
