Abstract :
This paper provides an overview of an advanced traffic management system (ATMS) simulator developed at Georgia Tech and being used as a research tool to help answer various questions that arise as intelligent vehicle-highway system (IVHS) technology makes its way into tomorrow´s advanced traffic management systems. The architecture, capabilities, technical challenges and implementation decisions associated with the development of this simulator are summarized. Brief descriptions of the traffic model, database, displays and associated simulated traffic video coverage are provided.
