About
J.H. Breeman’s research focuses on the intersection of transportation engineering, electronic fee collection (EFC), and simulation-based system evaluation. Their most cited work, “Evaluating automatic debiting systems by modelling and simulation of virtual sensors” (1998), addresses a critical challenge in intelligent transportation systems: ensuring reliable enforcement in automated tolling environments. Breeman developed a simulation framework using virtual sensors to model how Automatic Debiting Systems (ADS) interact with transponder-equipped vehicles, detect nonpayers, and trigger photographic enforcement. This work provided the Dutch government with a rigorous, risk-free method to test system performance before real-world deployment, directly influencing policy discussions around highway EFC implementation. While the paper has accumulated 2 citations, its value lies in its practical contribution to transportation infrastructure planning and its early exploration of simulation-based validation for cyber-physical tolling systems. Breeman’s research exemplifies how modeling and simulation can bridge the gap between theoretical system design and real-world regulatory decision-making, offering a template for evaluating complex, sensor-dependent public infrastructure projects.
