  • Abstract
    This paper proposes a discrete-flow form of the well-known point-queue model. Different from the traditional continuous-flow form with non-integral flow, the discrete-flow form treats a vehicle as its basic unit. The treatment simplifies the measurements of link travel times, and expands the applications of the point-queue model, such as into agent-based applications.
