TLDR
A stochastic discrete automaton model is introduced to simulate freeway traffic and shows a transition from laminar traffic flow to start-stop- waves with increasing vehicle density, as is observed in real freeway traffic.
Abstract
We introduce a stochastic discrete automaton model to simulate freeway traffic. Monte-Carlo simulations of the model show a transition from laminar traffic flow to start-stop- waves with increasing vehicle density, as is observed in real freeway traffic. For special cases analytical results can be obtained.

Multilevel Modeling of the Traffic Dynamic

TL;DR: A multilevel model of traffic is proposed, which combines submicroscopic, microscopic, and macroscopic levels of traffic model and is validated on a real-time simulator of vehicle dynamics, based on experimental measurements acquired from intelligent autonomous vehicles (IAVs).

Simulation of traffic flow at a signalized intersection

TL;DR: A Nagel–Schreckenberg cellular automata model for describing vehicular traffic flow at a single intersection and investigates the dependence of the flows on the signalization parameters.

A CAD System for Modeling and Simulation of Computer Networks Using Cellular Automata

TL;DR: The proposed system produces automatically synthesizable very high speed integrated circuits hardware description language code leading to the parallel hardware implementation of the aformentioned CA algorithms, rendering Net_CA a very reliable and fast simulator for wireless networks, ad hoc networks, and generally, for low connection reliability networks.

Numerical simulations for traffic-flow models on a decorated square lattice

TL;DR: There is a phase transition of the first-order type from the free-moving phase to a traffic jammed phase, in general, in models on the network of city roads.
