Abstract

This working paper is the second part of a series comparing dynamic traffic flow models. It documents the results of comparison based on the framework defined in Part 1. The traffic models selected for comparison are DINOSAUR, DYNASMART, INTEGRATION, and METS. The areas of comparison comprise four categories: functionality, traffic dynamics, route choice mechanism, and network performance.The first category was compared with a checklist of functions. A total of thirteen test scenarios were constructed to compare models for the last three categories.
