Abstract
We focus on the differences among the analytical optimization of traffic flow on a road network, modeled by a fluid-dynamic approach, and a dynamic random one. In particular, two real urban networks are analyzed: Re di Roma Square, in Rome, and Via Parmenide crossing, in Salerno. With such two examples, it is possible to show that dynamic random algorithms are not the right choice for the improvement of traffic conditions.
