Towards Modeling Activity Scheduling in an Agent-based Model for Pedestrian Dynamics Simulation

In this paper we present an extension of an agentbased model representing pedestrian dynamics in order to include elements related to activity scheduling and the management of events. In particular, we will focus on the guidelines to analyze the scenario, identifying activities and the temporal relationships among them, such as how events that happen in an environment and change its configurati...

Agent-based Simulation of Pedestrian Evacuation in Virtual Geographic Environment

Agent-based model has found great interest in simulation of pedestrian evacuation since it better represent the intelligent and self-organized behavior patterns of pedestrians. However, model validation and the user’s cognitive perspective have always been the two challenges in agent-based simulation. Therefore, this paper presents an approach to implement agent-based simulation of pedestrian e...

Agent Based Modeling and Simulation

The term computer simulation is related to the usage of a computational model in order to improve the understanding of a system's behavior and/or to evaluate strategies for its operation, in explanatory or predictive schemes. There are cases in which practical or ethical reasons make it impossible to realize direct observations: in these cases, the possibility of realizing 'in-machina' experime...

Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation

peared? Was this caused by climate changes? What type of recruitment strategy among social insects is best adapted to their particular environment? How much time does it take to evacuate an airport if people have limited perception caused by smoke as well as restricted mobility? What if many of these people travel in groups or families? How long does it take for commuters to reach their destina...
