A review of road traffic simulation methods using a general purpose digital computer

T. Briggs *

School of Mathematics and Computing, Leeds Polytechnic, Calverley Street, Leeds, UK

This paper reviews ways in which the positions of vehicles, as well as their movement along roads and through junctions, can be represented on a general purpose digital computer. The way in which the system moves forward in simulated time is also considered.

A discussion of whether it is worthwhile to simulate a traffic problem leads on to an outline description of some of the available packages.

Received September 1977.
