                  Congestion is one of the biggest challenges faced by
                  the transportation community, accounting for an
                  estimated 87.2 billion dollars in losses in 2007
                  alone. As such, transportation professionals need to
                  go beyond capacity expansion projects and explore
                  novel strategies to mitigate traffic congestion. One
                  such novel strategy, automated intersection
                  management, has been identified with the potential
                  to greatly reduce intersection delay and improve
                  safety. While the implementation of such a system is
                  contingent on the development of automated vehicles,
                  competitions such as DARPA's Grand and Urban
                  Challenges have shown that this technology is
                  feasible and will be available in the future. As
                  such, it becomes critical to develop the
                  infrastructure and associated control methods
                  required to fully exploit the benefits of such
                  technology at the system level. This research
                  explores one such innovative strategy, an Automated
                  Intersection Control protocol based on a First Come
                  First Serve (FCFS) reservation system. In
                  particular, it's shown that the FCFS reservation
                  system can significantly reduce intersection delay
                  by exploiting the features of autonomous
                  vehicles. We present microscopic simulation
                  experimental results and show that the FCFS
                  reservation system significantly outperforms a
                  traditional traffic signal in reducing delay.",
