Modeling Traffic in a Multi‐Agent System with Geographic Information Systems (GIS)Trinity Summer REU 2009
Goals: Simulate traffic in San Antonio
◦ Agents
◦ Enviroment
Our goals are to build off of last years traffic simulation model in two ways:
◦ Create a citywide map structure
◦ Implement driving agent behavior
“A behavioral multi-agent model for road traffic simulation.” Doniec, Mandiau, Piechowiak and Espie.

Types of agents:◦ Road agents◦ Traffic lights◦ Signs◦ Sensors
Path finding algorithm Shortest path Alternate path
Autonomous driver agents (DARPA) User functionality:
◦ Change traffic rules◦ Change driver behavior◦ Measure traffic flow◦ Change road structure
Week 3 - 4:◦ Translate last year’s code to Scala
Week 5 - 7:◦ Implement agent behavior◦ GUI
Week 8 – 9:◦ Optimize code and future work
