Abstract
This report focuses on the DYNASMART simulation program presents a model that is capable of simulating large urban networks under various Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS) and Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) strategies. It includes modules for driver responses to information and for capturing the dynamics of the network paths. The research also included the simulation study of a network in Orange County, California, where the benefits from candidate ATIS and ATMS strategies were evaluated. The DYNASMART model has evolved into a flexible tool that can be applied to evaluate information and control strategies in realistic urban networks in an efficient manner.
