Comparison of Software to support the Dynamic Management of Transport Systems

Description 

Comparison of available commercial software packages to give support to the planification of transport systems at the tactical analysis level. At this level we assume a model of travel assignments that includes the simulation of the traffic flow considering traffic lights (either a network or isolated). The software programs that will be analysed are the following: Saturn, TransModeler by Caliper and Dynameq by INRO.
