SIMULATION OF A VEHICULAR TRAFFIC SYSTEM BASED ON QUEUING NETWORK MODELS

This work is part of the research activities developed in our department on the construction of vehicle traffic system simulators. The modeling of the traffic system is implemented through the use of queuing networks. In this case we analyze, through a simulation, the impact on traffic flows of a structural change that the Municipal Administration has implemented on the urban road system. The study refers to some works published by us previously about the procedures applied by us to build a simulator. In this case we have developed software allowing us to analyze the data tracked by the system simulations to display it graphically. This procedure enables us to clearly compare the traffic system behavior in its new configuration with the traffic system behavior in the previous configuration.
