                                Big Data Computing for for Traffic Information by GPS Sensing</a>
                                </p>
                                <p>One of the fastest growing data source for traffic monitoring 
                                systems is GPS collected from mobile devices. There is a large demand 
                                in industry and transportation agencies to have access to high resolution 
                                state of traffic on highways and arterial roads globally. Real time 
                                systems that use GPS data include geospatial pre-processing components 
                                such as map matching and path inference. The rapidly growing volume 
                                of GPS data cannot be handled using traditional methods but instead 
                                of parallel computing approaches. Also, the new high resolution 
                                algorithms are developed to leverage the parallel processing frameworks. 
                                In this talk, Dr. Tossavainen will discuss directions taken to respond 
                                to the demand of providing high resolution information about the 
                                state of the traffic both in the context of modeling and implementation 
                                of a large scale system.
