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.read more

How Close are We to Realizing a Pragmatic VANET Solution? A Meta-Survey
TL;DR: The key characteristics of VANETs are explained, a meta-survey of research works are provided and a tutorial approach to introducing VANets is taken and the intricate details are discussed.
A Cellular Automaton Model for Crowd Movement and Egress Simulation
TL;DR: The major aim of this dissertation is to define and validate a model for the simulation of evacuation processes and their analysis, using the analogy between non-equilibrium many particle systems and crowds.

Cluster-based Medium Access Scheme for VANETs
TL;DR: A medium access scheme for vehicular ad-hoc networks which is based on clustering of the vehicles so the effect of hidden stations can be minimized and leads to a more reliable data transfer than IEEE 802.11 based systems can provide.

Urban traffic congestion propagation and bottleneck identification
TL;DR: A congestion propagation model of urban network traffic is proposed based on the cell transmission model (CTM) and a new method of estimating average journey velocity (AJV) of both link and network is developed to identify network congestion bottlenecks.
