Online simulation of traffic can assist route guidance systems by predicting problems such as congestion. Accurate predictions require accurate status information about vehicles - the fact that the vehicles are distributed over large-scale road infrastructure makes this particularly challenging. Embedding the online simulation in the road infrastructure - by distributing it across road side computing infrastructure - is a partial solution, but also adds additional complexity to the symbiotic relationship between online simulation and the physical system. In this paper we describe an approach that uses delegate MultiAgent Systems to reduce the complexity of such symbiotic relationships. Experimental results in a prototype implementation of the route guidance mechanisms show that the approach is feasible and leads to a proactive route guidance mechanisms with the potential of outperforming current state of the practice non-proactive routing mechanisms.
