Traffic Flow Simulation Model

Cellular Automata Roads are divided into cells Each cell can be either empty or occupied by a car Drawback: Impractical for large numbers Queue Based Links are represented as queues Performance increases by a factor of 10 to 100 Currently used by MATSim Event-Driven Queue Based Extends the Queue-based model Imitates backwards traveling gaps
