MULTI-AGENT ARCHITECTURE FOR SIMULATION OF TRAFFIC WITH COMMUNICATIONS

Pedro Fernandes, Urbano Nunes

2008

Abstract

Inter-vehicle communications, in the context of Intelligent Transportation Systems, will probably bring a significant improvement in both traffic safety and efficiency. In order to evaluate in what measure this is true, traffic simulations that take into account the communications between vehicles are needed. In this paper, we propose an agent-based architecture, in which the simulation and management of the inter-vehicle communications are integrated in the simulation of vehicles, in a hierarchical multi-agent environment. An overview of multi-agent methodologies, platforms, among other, is also presented.
