6. Current Projects: Multi-Modal Intelligent Traffic Signal System Awarded to University of Arizona (March 2012 – June 2013) –Partly funded by the USDOT to support the Dynamic Mobility Application program –Develop a concept of operations, systems requirements and system design that services multiple modes of transportation –Prepare for field testing/demonstration of the developed Multi-Modal Intelligent Traffic Signal System at two locations –Maricopa County, Arizona –El Camino Real, California 6

7. Multi-Modal Intelligent Traffic Signal System Task 1 – Concept of Operations (ConOps) is a foundation document that frames the overall system and sets the technical course for the project Task 2 – Development of System Requirements captures requirements that define what the system will do but not how the system will do it Task 3 – High-level System Design defines the framework of the system –Subsystems and components of the system are identified –Requirements are allocated to the system components, and interfaces are specified in detail –Detailed specifications are created for the hardware and software components to be developed Task 4 – Deployment and Field Test Plan is a comprehensive plan for deploying and field testing the proposed MMITSS 7
