Abstract
A server accesses vehicle data from each connected vehicle (CV) of a subset of a plurality of CVs on a roadway portion, the vehicle data comprising at least one of: a position, a velocity, or a headway. The server generates, based on the accessed vehicle data, a long-term shared world model. The server generates, using the long-term shared world model, a data structure representing predicted future velocities on the roadway portion by position and time by applying a traffic flow model to the long-term shared world model. The server transmits, to a connected autonomous vehicle (CAV), a control signal for controlling operation of the CAV based on the generated data structure.
