Traffic simulator with a digital computer

Published:07 February 1956Publication History

ABSTRACT

Many mathematical models of traffic flow have been advanced in the past. Not all of these models are adaptable to situations involving complicated networks and control systems. A further difficulty is the insufficient number of specially trained traffic engineers who are capable of using these mathematical methods. In general, the design of traffic systems still involves much guesswork.
