DESCRIPTION:Prof.Neil Walton\, Durham University BusinessSchool\, United K
 ingdom\nAbstract: We propose and discuss various a decentralized traffic s
 ignal control policy for urban road networks. We discuss issues associated
  with transferring control policies traditionally used in communications s
 ystems to the vehicular traffic. We discuss counter-examples previously un
 known to both literatures. Further\, simulations are been conducted to com
 pare distributed control policies in various traffic and network scenarios
 .\n\nBio: Neil Walton is a Professor in Operations Management at Durham U
 niversity Business School. His research is in applied probability and prin
 cipally concerns the decentralized minimization of congestion in networks.
  He was a lecturer at University of Amsterdam where he held an NWO Veni Fe
 llowship. He was a Reader in Mathematics. Neil was a Fellow of the Alan
  Turing Institute and a guest lecturer at London Business School. He has 
 an honorary position at the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust. Du
 rham\, he is Deputy Head of the Department of Management and Marketing. H
 e is an associate editor at the journal Stochastic Systems. He is an area
  editor for stochastic models at Operations Research. He has won best pap
 ers awards at the ACM Sigmetrics conference and he was awarded the 2018 Er
 lang Prize by the Informs Applied Probability Society. \n
