Abstract :
In the paper the results of simulation study on evacuation from building using intelligent agents system and experiment during drill evacuation from a building are presented. Each agent uses movement strategies based on algorithms integrating data coming from many different sources, eg. Langevin equation with the social force term describing agents mental component are used. In numerical simulations it is possible to observe the trajectories of agents. Reuse of information obtained by different agents decreases computation time.
