Abstract: |
An outline of parallel road
traffic simulation based on the High Level Architecture (HLA) is presented.
The methodology used to achieve parallelisation
includes domain decomposition where the road network model is partitioned
into sub-models and these sub-models are simulated on different cluster
nodes. The domain decomposition concept is used for the parallelisation
strategy where the road network is partitioned into parts and these parts are
simulated on different computers. All federates simulating the different
parts of the network communicate through the Runtime Infrastructure (RTI).
The RTI services are used to realise simulation
time advance and event synchronisation, and to the
transfer of data across the network partitions. This paper discusses the
implementation issues and also reports elements of the performance analysis. |
