As part of the
HPCN Europe '99 event, a
half a day workshop
on traffic simulation has been
scheduled on Wednesday April 14 in the morning.
Traffic simulation
is one of those applications were high performance computing techniques are essential. Individual
vehicles must exhibit plausible driving behavior and the traffic
properties such as density and flow must be appropriate. Parallelism enables
the real-time simulation of hundreds, thousands or millions of vehicles, with no loss of detail.
08:30 - 09:15 | Dr. Kai Nagel (Transims, Los Alamos): Large scale traffic simulations for transportation planning. |
09:20 - 09:55 | Dr. F. Middelham (Transport Research Centre (AVV), Rotterdam): Predictability: some thoughts on modelling. |
10:00 - 10:35 | Dr. Stephan Rosswog (DLR Mobilität und Systemtechnik, Köln):
Some computational aspects in traffic simulation problems. |
10:40 - 11:10 | coffee break |
11:10 - 11:45 | Prof. Dr. Michael Schreckenberg (G.-M. Univ. Duisburg): Online simulations with cellular automata. |
11:50 - 12:25 | Mr. G. Duncan (Quadstone Ltd., Edinburgh): Paramics: Microscopic Traffic Simulation using MPI. |
