Abstract
Software simulations of building evacuation during emergency can provide rich qualitative and quantitative results for safety analysis. However, the majority of them do not take into account current surveys on human behaviors under stressful situations that explain the important role of personality and emotions in crowd behaviors during evacuations. In this paper we propose a framework for designing evacuation simulations that is based on a multi-agent BDI architecture enhanced with the OCEAN model of personality and the OCC model of emotions.
