Discovery of Crises via Agent-Based Simulation of a Transportation System

Multi-agent Crisis Management in Transport Domain

“…Here, we will especially focus on applications in the transport domain. In [11] a general idea of the model of such a system to react on crisis situations, prevent them and minimise consequences is given. The crisis situations analysed are most often delays caused by uncertain travel times and traffic jams [7].…”

Agent-Based and Evolutionary Planning Techniques Supporting Crises Management in Transportation Systems

“…Crisis is interpreted here as a threat of loss (partial or complete) of the system functionality. Based on the principal assumptions of MAS operation an architecture was proposed, which seems to be general enough to be used as a reference one for describing crises management activities (Nawarecki et al, 2005).…”

“…Based on a general scheme of crises management in multi-agent systems (MAS), as well as preliminary results obtained in the field of transportation systems (Nawarecki et al, 2005), a variety of possible variants of planning-support techniques are considered in the paper. Section 2 introduces fundamental concepts of the approach-a reference architecture for crises management for MAS.…”

Agent-Based Modeling of Supply Chains in Critical Situations

“…resource deficit, local damages) factors. Such is the source of an idea to embed considerations about crises in the field of multi-agent systems -MAS [3,6].…”

“…Results of the simulation studies would be the scenarios of crises progress. Investigation of the scenarios would lead to finding a strategy of avoiding the particular crisis or, at least, reducing its effects [9,6].…”
