Abstract

In this paper we introduce a new model, called the GRAM model, that provides an accelerated-time simulation of traffic on a motorway. The model provides an accelerated-time simulation using ideas and techniques from both cellular automata and neural network models. It has been implemented in a package using a Computer Algebra System (CAS) for the development of algorithms and a Java environment to display the simulated results graphically.
