Abstract

A GPSS/360 simulation model of the University of Iowa campus bus system is given. The simulation model was constructed to study modifications of the current system necessitated by the rapid growth in ridership during the first year of service. The main GPSS model is based on three macros: a customer generation and destination macro, a bus macro, and a scheduling macro. Some recommendations concerning future operations are given.
