Abstract
We consider elevator control algorithms for destination call systems, where passengers specify the destination floor when calling an elevator. In particular, we propose a number of extensions to our algorithm BI [4] aimed to improve the performance for high intensity up peak traffic, which is the most demanding traffic situation. We provide simulation results comparing the performance achieved with these extensions and find that one of them performs very well under high intensity traffic and still satisfactorily at lower traffic intensities.
