The movements and interactions of mobile physical entities such as vehicles, individuals and so on in a physical space can be monitored and controlled by providing a graphical representation of the physical space including an indication of a position of a mobile entity with respect to a region associated with a reference point in the physical space where the indication is situated at a distance from the reference point where the distance is proportional to the predicted time of arrival of the entity in the region. On this basis, mobile entities are shown in the order of expected arrival, rather than their instantaneous physical location, supporting more rapid assimilation of anticipated arrivals and traffic conditions.
