Abstract:

Design, study and management of Urban Traffic Systems (UTS) are increasingly difficult and expensive as existing configurations are multiple and complex. Several approaches exist for modelling and simulating UTS. Current software environments try to take into account as many phenomena and facilities as possible according to a planning level (strategic, tactical or operational). In order to tackle with this complexity, we propose a modelling methodology aiming to build a software environment. It uses UML as modelling language and a multi-agents approach to model the management and control system. We validate this approach and the software environment on two case studies for UTS.
