SUMO in Scientific Literature, 2002–2012

Abstract

Abstract. SUMO is an open source microscopic road traffic simulation developed at the German Aerospace Center since the year 2000. The major audience is the traffic research community. This article tries to answer whether SUMO got accepted, who uses it, and for which purposes. The investigation is performed based on a collection of scientific publications that name SUMO. The documents contained in this collection were bibliographically annotated and classified using three different classification schemes. The investigation reveals an increasing usage of SUMO by a growing, international community. It shows that SUMO is mainly used in the scope of research on vehicular communications.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Autonomous Driving in Amazon Web Services DeepRacer

“…With the constant growth of the area of autonomous driving, it has become essential to have platforms where these Sim-to-Real techniques can be tested and refined. Several simulation platforms, including CARLA [41], AirSim [42], TORCS [43], and SUMO [44], significantly contribute to the development and evaluation of deep RL autonomous systems by offering diverse environments and features to simulate real-world scenarios.…”

An Intelligent Path Management in Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks

“…We collect network-related information, such as delay, RSS, PLR and jitter, using the ns-3 network simulator [62] and transmit it to the PM for processing. On the other hand, SUMO traffic simulator [63] is used to provide mobility-related information such as vehicle speed, position, and direction. The proposed PM and with other applications were run in an isolated namespace that is connected to the simulated vehicle, according to the framework [64].…”

Route estimation based on network flow maximization

“…The algorithm is already implemented as a prototype inside the simulation software package SUMO [10,9]. The first results concerning quality and runtime are very promising, but thereis need for more evaluation especially in the case of single detector being missing at across section.…”
