Towards Agent-Based Traffic Simulation Using Live Data From Sensors For Smart Cities, Johan Barthelemy, Yan Qian, Pascal Perez
Towards Agent-Based Traffic Simulation Using Live Data From Sensors For Smart Cities, Johan Barthelemy, Yan Qian, Pascal Perez
SMART Infrastructure Facility - Papers
The Smart City and Internet-of-Things revolutions enable the collection of various types of data in real-time through sensors. This data can be used to improve the decision tools and simulations used by city planners. This paper presents a new framework for real-time traffic simulation integrating an agent-based methodology with live CCTV and other sensor data while respecting the privacy regulations. The framework simulates traffic flows of pedestrians, vehicles and bicycles and their interactions. The approach has been applied in Liverpool (NSW, Australia) showing promising preliminary results and can easily ingest additional sensor data, e.g. air quality.

Agent based modelling is nowadays widely used in transport and the social science. Forecasting population evolution and analysing the impact of hypothetical policies are often the main goal of these developments. Such models are based on sub-models defining the interactions of agents either with other agents or with their environment. Sometimes, several models represent phenomena arising at the same time in the real life. Hence, the question of the order in which these sub-models need to be applied is very relevant for simulation outcomes. This paper aims to analyse and quantify the impact of the change in the order of …

The aim of this work is to present the initial exploration of a behavioural Dynamic Traffic Assignment model, particularly suitable to be used and implemented in agent-based micro-simulations. The proposal relies on the assumption that travellers take routing policies rather than paths, leading us to introduce the possibility for each simulated agent to apply, in real time, a strategy allowing him to possibly re-route his path depending on the perceived local traffic conditions, jam and/or time spent. The re-routing process allows the agents to directly react to any change in the road network. For the sake of simplicity, the agents' …
An Agent-Based Framework For Simulating Socio-Organisational Design Of Large Projects, Ricardo Peculis, Derek Rogers, Peter Campbell
An Agent-Based Framework For Simulating Socio-Organisational Design Of Large Projects, Ricardo Peculis, Derek Rogers, Peter Campbell
SMART Infrastructure Facility - Papers
The success of large projects depends on how people associated in teams and organisations perform their tasks and cooperate to achieve a shared goal. Success depends on an effective socio-organisational design that defines organisational structures; human resources in the form of people's abilities, roles and responsibilities; and establishing processes and contracts that will drive measures of success. Predicting the behaviour of large projects is difficult and the performance of the socio-organisational design is likely to be validated only when it is put in to practice. Simulation offers a way to explore the likely behaviour of social systems without the drawback …
