Abstract :
This paper presents an application of microscopic traffic modeling to perform real time highway traffic simulation and prediction. The simulation uses inductance loop data as model input and predicts the downstream traffic based on a microscopic model. The preliminary results show high cross-correlation between the prediction and the real data
