Fundamentals of Traffic Simulation

From the reviews: "This book presents a comprehensive review of some of the most popular traffic simulation packages used in practice and in academia around the world. ... an impressive collection and review of existing traffic simulation packages. ... a valuable resource for transport researchers in both academic and industrial sectors. ... the book attractive to readers from both the academic and the industrial sectors. ... In conclusion, this book is an outstanding review of traffic simulation ... ." (Andy Chow, Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, Vol. 38, 2011) "Fundamentals of Traffic Simulation presents the state of the art in traffic simulation in a useful and practical manner. ... This book will be useful for practitioners, students, and researchers. ... can serve as an introduction to traffic simulation, as a vehicle for selecting among the various tools, and as a comprehensive guide to current traffic simulation tools. A copy should be present in the libraries of every university's civil engineering department and of every traffic consultancy team."
