Abstract

Micro-simulation is the modeling of individual vehicle movements on a second by second or sub second basis for the purpose of assessing the traffic performance of highway and street systems, transit, and pedestrians. The past one and a half decade a rapid evolution in the sophistication of micro-simulation models have been seen, as well as a major expansion of their use in transportation engineering and planning practices. Models of the mid-nineties required inputs which were expensive to collect and not accurate enough to reflect the full range of traffic behavior. Trough introduction of new technologies for advanced traffic control and information systems next generation models abound a source of data which can be used to reduce the cost of collecting the required data and improving its fidelity. In this context this paper aims to perform as an overview that combines both, current traffic simulation systems capabilities and customer expectations. Therefore, a comparison of simulation tools as well as SWOT analysis has been conducted by analyzing scientific papers and technical specifications. Namely, we will present a comparative analysis between recently developed microscopic simulation model SFSTreetSIModel, version 2.1 for educational purposes and three commercial micro-simulation tools.
