A comparison of microscopic traffic flow simulation systems for an urban area

The paper compares the results of an application of three selected systems (TRANSIMS, SUMO, and VISSIM) to the microscopic simulation of traffic flow for a fragment of a real urban road network. First, the problem of traffic flow modeling and simulation was described, and the selected systems were i...
