The platform of a microscopic traffic simulation provides an opportunity to study the driving behavior of vehicles on a roadway system. Compared to traditional conventional cars with human drivers, the car-following behaviors of autonomous vehicles (AVs) and connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) would be quite different and hence require additional modeling efforts. This paper presents a thorough review of the literature on the car-following models used in prevalent micro-simulation tools for vehicles with both human and robot drivers. Specifically, the car-following logics such as the Wiedemann model and adaptive cruise control technology were reviewed based on the vehicle’s dynamic behavior and driving environments. In addition, some of the more recent “AV-ready (autonomous vehicles ready) tools” in micro-simulation platforms are also discussed in this paper.
Successful enterprise management in modern conditions requires the optimization of its business processes. This problem can be solved using simulation, which involves the construction of models that describe the processes as they would in reality. Based on the simulation results, decisions are made to improve the technology and methodology for performing business processes, rational use of resources, reduce the cost of business processes, etc. The paper considers the practical aspects of building models and modeling using one of the popular computer simulation systems Anylogic.
