This paper introduces the agent-based Crisis Operations Simulation Framework, with its component elements, for studying pedestrian crowd behavior and potential use of police resources for crowd management and safety in the context of an urban crisis situation. Agent-based models of both the cognitive, affective pedestrian agents with personality features and the cognitive police agents are presented. An illustrative simulation investigating police coordination to facilitate pedestrian traffic flow in the presence of a small fire event is presented. The detailed pedestrian agent models have been developed using tools of the Crisis Operations framework, as has the geometry of the city area.
