Abstract :
This paper presents an urban traffic control system using the multi-agent technology, called aDAPTS for agent-based Distributed and Adaptive Platform for Transportation Systems. Based on the proposed system architecture, we divide an urban traffic system into five different functional modules and define five types of agents correspondingly. The composition and structure of each agent is discussed in detail and the correlation among them is addressed. Methods for verification and validation in artificial transportation systems are also studied in this paper.
