MAXBAND has been enhanced to provide the capability of computing traffic-signal timing plans for general grid networks, using bandwidth as a criterion. The revised program is more user-friendly and has several new features. General grid networks as large as 20 x 20 can be solved. Phase-sequence optimization is provided together with NEMA, eight-phase numbering. MAXBAND is written in FORTRAN 77. Volume 3, MAXBAND Programmer's Manual, gives detailed descriptions of the subroutines composing the MAXBAND program as developed using structured programming technology. Each description includes the purpose and function of the subroutine, how it is related to other subroutines, and the variables which it uses. Other than features that have been altered, no attempt is made to document the MPCODE Mathematical Programming System, portions of which are included in the MAXBAND program.
