چکیده

Dieser Text stellt das Projekt “Planning with Virtual Alpine Landscapes and Autonomous Agents” (ALPSIM www page, accessed 2003) vor, welches vom Programm “Habitats and Landscapes of the Alps” des Schweizer Nationalfond finanziert wird. Das Projekt untersucht, inwieweit es möglich ist, Multiagentensimulationen einzusetzen, um landschaftliche Veränderungen in Touristengegenden in den Schweizer Alpen zu untersuchen. Das Projekt verwendet simulierte Agenten, welche die Landschaft “sehen” und entsprechend auf Veränderungen reagieren. Dieser Text beschreibt die allgemeinen Projektziele sowie Aspekte der Computerimplementation. This paper introduces the project “Planning with Virtual Alpine Landscapes and Autonomous Agents” (ALPSIM www page, accessed 2003), which is funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation program “Habitats and Landscapes of the Alps.” The project explores the feasibility of using autonomous agent modeling to evaluate future scenarios in a tourist landscape in the Swiss Alps. The project uses simulated people (agents) who “see” the landscape as surrogates for real people, in order to test their reactions against the simulated scenarios. This paper describes the overall project goals and the computational approach used to attain them.

Agent-based Large Scale Simulation of Pedestrians With Adaptive Realistic Navigation Vector Fields

A large scale pedestrian simulation method, implemented with an agent based modelling paradigm, is presented within this paper. It allows rapid prototyping and real-time modifications, suitable for quick generation and testing of the viability of pedestrian movement in urban environments. The techniques described for pedestrian simulation make use of parallel processing through graphics card ha...

Visual Modeling and Simulation of Multiscale Phenomena

RAHUL NARAIN: Visual Modeling and Simulation of Multiscale Phenomena (Under the direction of Ming C. Lin) Many large-scale systems such as human crowds, fluids, and granular materials exhibit complicated motion at many different scales, from a characteristic global behavior to important small-scale detail. Such multiscale systems are computationally expensive for traditional simulation techniqu...

The calibration of vehicle and pedestrian flow in Mangalore city using PARAMICS

This paper presents a traffic simulation approach for evaluating the pedestrian behaviour by developing a model which includes pedestrians in a vehicular micro-simulation model i.e. PARAMICS that provides a default mechanism for simulating pedestrian movements. This approach is demonstrated by using a case study of a signalized intersection having large pedestrian flow interacting with large ve...

Simulation of Pedestrian Dynamics with Macroscopic and Microscopic Mathematical Models

Here, we collect two parts of a research project on the pedestrian flow modeling. Rapid growth in the volume of public transport and the need for its reasonable, efficient planning have made the description and modeling of transport and pedestrian behaviors as important research topics in the past twenty years. First, we present a macroscopic model for the pedestrian flow based on continuum mec...

An Assessment of the Impact of Pedestrian Refuge Islands on Vehicle Speed Changes and Pedestrian Safety: Case Study in Tehran

Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable road users. Speed of vehicles is considered as one of the major causes of danger for pedestrians crossing the street. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to devise suitable solutions to reduce speed of vehicles. One of these solutions is installation of Pedestrian Refuge Islands (PRI) in very wide midblocks. With regard to fluctuations in pedestrian a...

Toward a Hybrid Approach for Crowd Simulation

We address the problem of simulating pedestrian crowd behaviors in real time. To date, two approaches can be used in modeling and simulation of crowd behaviors, i.e. macroscopic and microscopic models. Microscopic simulation techniques can capture the accuracy simulation of individualistic pedestrian behavior while macroscopic simulations maximize the efficiency of simulation; neither of them a...
