  • Abstract
    We describe the use of discrete event simulation in modeling the curbside vehicular traffic at airports. The dynamic nature of vehicular traffic poses a challenge in developing a discrete event simulation model to represent roadway operations. We present our simulation methodology in modeling the new Austin-Bergstrom International Airport and address the use of simulation in the design as well as the operational planning issues. We share our experience in overcoming many challenges in this modeling effort
