Abstract

Current research in applying the Dynamic Data Driven Application Systems (DDDAS) concept to monitor and manage surface transportation systems in day-to-day and emergency scenarios is described. This work is focused in four, tightly coupled areas. First, a novel approach to predicting future system states termed ad hoc distributed simulations has been developed and is under investigation. Second, on-line simulation models that can incorporate real-time data and perform rollback operations for optimistic ad hoc distributed simulations are being developed and configured with data corresponding to the Atlanta metropolitan area. Third, research in the analysis of real-time data is being used to define approaches for transportation system data collection that can drive distributed on-line simulations. Finally, research in data dissemination approaches is examining effective means to distribute information in mobile distributed systems to support the ad hoc distributed simulation concept.
