Abstract :
ACP (Artificial societies, Computational experiments, and Parallel execution) approach is adopted by our method to build parallel public transport system (PPTS). The framework of PPTS is proposed and some components are analyzed. Two key steps in building up PPTS are discussed. The first is growing up artificial public transport system from bottom up using agent-based technology. The second is implementing schedule plans of public vehicles using cloud computing. One specific PPTS is established for Guangzhou 2010 Asian Games. Its effectiveness is verified and illustrated by comparing the traffic parameters between before and after the employment.
