A Simulation Laboratory for Evaluating Dynamic TraÆc Management Systems

Advanced TraÆc Management Systems (ATMS) and Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) are promising technologies for achieving eÆciency in the operation of transportation systems. This paper presents a simulation based laboratory environment, MITSIMLab, designed for testing and evaluation of dynamic traÆc management systems. The core of MITSIMLab is a microscopic traÆc simulator (MITSIM) and a traÆc management simulator (TMS). | TRB Paper No. 00-1688 A Simulation Laboratory for Evaluating Dynamic Traffic Management Systems Qi Yang Caliper Corporation 1172 Beacon Street Newton MA 02461 USA Tel. 617 527-4700 Fax 617 527-5113 Email qiyang@caliper.com Haris N.

Ben-Akiva Massachusetts Institute of Technology Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Cambridge MA 02139 USA Abstract Advanced Traffic Management Systems ATMS and Advanced Traveler Information Systems ATIS are promising technologies for achieving efficiency in the operation of transportation systems. This paper presents a simulation based laboratory environment MITSIMLab designed for testing and evaluation of dynamic traffic management systems. The core of MITSIMLab is a microscopic traffic simulator MITSIM and a traffic management simulator TMS . MITSIM represents traffic flows in the network while TMS represents the traffic management system under evaluation. An important feature of MITSIMLab is its ability to model ATMS ATIS which generate traffic controls and route guidance based on predicted traffic conditions. A graphical user interface allows visualization of the simulation including animation of vehicle movements. An ATIS case study with a realistic network is also presented to demonstrate the .
