Microscopic Traffic Simulation: Models and Application

Microscopic traffic simulation is an important tool for traffic analysis, particularly in the presence of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). In this paper we describe the main components of a microscopic traffic simulation model and illustrate the discussion with examples drawn from our experience with a microscopic traffic simulation tool, MITSIMLab. With respect to the use of simulation models in practical applications we discuss issues related to their calibration and validation. We demonstrate this part with a case study of applying MITSIMLab in Stockholm, Sweden.
