摘要

This paper presents a brief history of the development of traffic simulation from the 1950s to thernpresent time, largely from an autobiographical perspective. Since I participated in some of thernearly developments and had personal exposure to those pioneers who preceded me, I am hopeful thatrnthis perspective can provide insights that a chronological literature survey, alone, could not provide.rnGeneral-purpose digital computers became available in 1952. A small number of researchers atrnuniversities which had access to these early computers became interested in simulation technologyrnand developed software applied to individual intersections and short freeway sections. Otherrnresearchers recognized the need to represent traffic flow in analytical terms and developedrnformulations which could be utilized by simulation modelers. In the 1960s and 1970s, as computersrnbecame more plentiful and of greater power, FHWA, NCHRP, and other national research agencies,rnsupported the development of useful network simulation models. As a result, the technology’s valuernin the field of traffic operations and control became apparent to an increasing number ofrnpractitioners. In the 1980s, simulation models that integrated traffic operations with trafficrnassignment were introduced; these attracted transportation planners who were seeking morerneffective, equilibrium-based tools. The continuing development of personal computer (PC)rntechnology has fostered the development of regional simulation-based multimode models which arernnow routinely applied by practitioners worldwide. The pressing need to manage transportationrnsystems to be increasingly productive and efficient in an environment of increasing demand willrnrequire simulation-based tools well into the future.
