چکیده

MATSim is a mature and powerful traffic simulator, used for large scale traffic simulations, primarily to assess likely results of various infrastructure or road network changes. We have coupled MATSim with the BDI system GORITE to provide additional valuable functionality within MATSim, and have demonstrated this with an application combining BDI taxis with standard MATSim traffic agents. Although standard MATSim agents all have individual plans regarding their behaviour, this is fixed in advance, and cannot be modified during the simulation of a single day, depending on emergent situational phenomena. This limits its usability for a range of applications, such as evacuation planning. In addition, the plans of MATSim agents are very simple, being limited to sequences of activities at different locations. In this work we extend the capabilities of MATSim to allow agents to respond intelligently to emergent environmental phenomena.

Integrating BDI Agents into a MATSim Simulation

MATSim is a mature and powerful traffic simulator, used for large scale traffic simulations, primarily to assess likely results of various infrastructure or road network changes. More recently there has been work to extend MATSim to allow its use in applications requiring what has been referred to as “within day replanning”. In the work described here we have coupled MATSim with a BDI (Belief D...

Diss . Eth No . Large - Scale Parallel Graph - Based Simulations

When systems are modeled, different techniques are used. Computer simulation is one of these techniques. It draws attention since it makes it possible to model a system that might be real or theoretical, to execute the model on a computer, and to analyze the output of the execution of the model. Execution of a model on a computer develops through time, i.e. the states of the different parts of ...

Authoring plug-in tutor agents by demonstration: Rapid, rapid tutor development

We combined two existing methods for rapid tutor development: “plug-in tutor agents” [6] and an authoring tool suite (CTAT) that supports the creation of tutors “by demonstration” [2]. The combined approach, which has not been tried before, is suited for adding tutoring capabilities to an existing problem-solving environment, for example an off-the-shelf simulator. Connecting the components (i....

MATSim-T: Architecture and Simulation Times

Micro-simulations for transport planning are becoming increasingly important in traffic simulation, traffic analysis, and traffic forecasting. In the last decades the shift from using typically aggregated data to more detailed, individual based, complex data (e.g. GPS tracking) and the continuously growing computer performance on fixed price level leads to the possibility of using microscopic m...
