Crowd behavior simulations have been studied to further accelerated and refined by parallelism by inducing agent-interacting forces into the image field representing the forces of attraction and repulsion. However, it was difficult to consider rapidly changing environments such as fire situations in buildings because texture images must be generated in advance simulation starts and simulations can only be performed in 2D spaces. In this paper, we propose a crowd agent behavior simulation method based on agent's 3D affordance field for flexible agent behavior in variable geomorphological environments in 3D space. The proposed method generates 3D affordance field related to agents and sensors in 3D space and defines the agent behavior in 3D space for the crowd behavior simulation based on an image-inducing field to a 3D space. Experimental results verified that our method enables the development of large-scale crowd behavior simulations that are flexible to various fire evacuation situations in 3D virtual spaces.

In companion paper, the composition and structure of the traffic environment is derived. Rules to regulate agent behaviors and the frameworks to communicate between the agents are proposed. In this paper, the model of a driver agent which controls a vehicle agent is constructed. The driver agent is capable of having different driving styles. That is, each driver agent has individual behavior settings of the yielding index and the passing index. The yielding index can be defined as how often the agent yields in case of lane changes, and the passing index can be defined as how often the agent passes ahead. According to these indices, the agents overtake or make their lanes for other vehicles. Similarly, the vehicle agents can have various vehicle dynamic models. According to their dynamic characteristics, the vehicle agent shows its own behavior. The vehicle model of the vehicle agent contains the nonlinear subcomponents of engine, torque converter, automatic transmission, and wheels. The simulation has proceeded for an interrupted flow model. The result has shown that it is possible to express the characteristics of each vehicle and its driver in a traffic flow, and that the change of the traffic state is closely related with the distance and the signal delay between intersections. The system developed in this paper shows the effectiveness and the practical usefulness of the traffic simulation.

The study of pedestrian behavior covers wide topics, including way finding, choice and decision make, as well as spatial cognition and environmental perception. To address the problem, simulation is now put forward as suitable technique and method for analyzing human spatial behavior. In the paper we present a development architecture for simulating tracking pedestrian in a distributed environment. We introduce and explore the potential of using mobile agent-enabled distributed implementation model as a tool for development and implementation of the simulation. Three kinds of mobile agents are designed for implementation of managing and querying data of pedestrian.

In the companion paper, the composition and structure of the MATDYMO (Multi-Agent for Traffic Simulation with Vehicle Dynamic Model) were proposed. MATDYMO consists of the road management system, the vehicle motion control system, the driver management system, and the integration control system. Among these systems, the road management system and the integration control system were discussed In the companion paper. In this paper, the vehicle motion control system and the driver management system are discussed. The driver management system constructs the driver agent capable of having different driving styles ranging from slow and careful driving to fast and aggressive driving through the yielding index and passing index. According to these indices, the agents pass or yield their lane for other vehicles; the driver management system constructs the vehicle agents capable of representing the physical vehicle itself. A vehicle agent shows its behavior according to its dynamic characteristics. The vehicle agent contains the nonlinear subcomponents of engine, torque converter, automatic transmission, and wheels. The simulation is conducted for an interrupted flow model and its results are verified by comparison with the results from a commercial software, TRANSYT-7F. The interrupted flow model simulation is implemented for three cases. The first case analyzes the agents' behaviors in the interrupted flow model and it confirms that the agent's behavior could characterize the diversity of human behavior and vehicle well through every rule and communication frameworks. The second case analyzes the traffic signals changed at different intervals and as the acceleration rate changed. The third case analyzes the effects of the traffic signals and traffic volume. The results of these analyses showed that the change of the traffic state was closely related with the vehicle acceleration rate, traffic volume, and the traffic signal interval between intersections. These simulations confirmed that MATDYMO can represent the real traffic condition of the interrupted flow model. At the current stage of development, MATDYMO shows great promise and has significant implications on future traffic state forecasting research.

본 논문은 규칙기반 에이전트를 이용하여 여객선 화재시 피난행동특성을 고려한 승객행동모델을 제안한다. 기존 시스템들은 승객의 속도만을 반영한 속도기반모델을 사용하였다. 속도기반모델은 승객의 신체적 특징만 고려한 모델로 피난행동특성을 반영하기 어렵다. 이 문제점을 해결하기 위해 규칙기반 에이전트로 피난행동특성을 반영한 승객모델을 모델링하였다. 규칙기반 에이전트는 지식베이스와 추론엔진으로 구성된다. 지식베이스에는 피난행동특성들 중에서 다양한 행동 패턴을 보여줄 수 있는 예제를 선택하여 규칙형태의 지식으로 표현하고, 추론엔진은 지식을 전방추론하여 승객의 행위를 결정하도록 구현하였다. 이승객모델을 IMO MSC/Circ.1238의 문제 8에 적용하여 시뮬레이션을 진행한 결과 규칙기반 에이전트로 모델링한 승객이 다양한 인간의 행동 패턴을 표현할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

The validity of simulation has been well-established for decades in areas such as computer and communication system. Recently, the technique has become entrenched in specific areas such as transportation and traffic forecasting. Several methods have been proposed for investigating complex traffic flows. However, the dynamics of vehicles and their driver's characteristics, even though it is known that they are important factors for any traffic flow analysis, have never been considered sufficiently. In this paper, the traffic simulation using a multi-agent approach with considering vehicle dynamics is proposed. The multi-agent system is constructed with the traffic environment and the agents of vehicle and driver. The traffic environment consists of multi-lane roads, nodes, virtual lanes, and signals. To ensure the fast calculation, the agents are performed on the based of the rules to regulate their behaviors. The communication frameworks are proposed for the agents to share the information of vehicles' velocity and position. The model of a driver agent which controls a vehicle agent is described in the companion paper. The vehicle model contains the nonlinear subcomponents of engine, torque converter, automatic transmission, and wheels. The simulation has proceeded for an interrupted and uninterrupted flow model. The result has shown that the driver agent performs human-like behavior ranging from slow and careful to fast and aggressive driving behavior, and that the change of the traffic state is closely related with the distance and the signal delay between intersections. The system developed shows the effectiveness and the practical usefulness of the traffic simulation.

The object of this research is to develop a simulation system for earthmoving operations in consideration of the impact of congestion in-between equipment and existing traffic flow around the site. The congestion in-between equipment and traffic flow affect work productivity. The conventional discrete event simulation, however, has limitations in simulating the flow of construction equipment. To consider the impact of congestion in-between equipment and existing traffic flow, in this paper, a multi-agent based simulation model that can realize characteristics of truck behavior more accurately to consider the impact of congestion was proposed. In this simulation model, multiple agents can identify environmental changes and adapt themselves to the new environment. This modeling approach is a better choice for this problem since it describes behavioral characteristics of each agent by sensing changes in dynamic surroundings. This study suggests a detailed system design of the multi-agent based simulation system.

에이전트 기반 모델링 및 시뮬레이션(Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation)은 기존 시스템 수준에서의 시뮬레이션이 구현할 수 없는 에이전트의 세밀한 행동과 상호작용을 활용하여 시장이나 사회 현상의 모델링에 사용되는 기술이다. 그러나 에이전트 기반 모델링 및 시뮬레이션은 에이전트 기반 시스템의 지식 수준에서의 합리성의 원칙에 기반하여 구현되기 때문에 스스로의 목표 달성을 저해하는 에이전트를 표현할 수 없다[1]. 에이전트 기반 소프트웨어 공학 분야에서는 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 사회적 수준에서의 행동 법칙을 통해 해결하였으나[2], 구체적인 개발 방법론은 제시가 되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 에이전트 기반 소프트웨어 공학 방법론인 트로포스와 사회적 행동 법칙을 결합하여 사회적 행동 법칙을 반영한 새로운 에이전트 기반 모델링 및 시뮬레이션 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 각 개발 단계별로 구체적인 과업을 명시하고 과업 별로 생성되는 산출물 분석을 통해 모델링 및 시뮬레이션의 과정을 설명한다. 또한 자가 적응적 스마트 그리드와 군 도메인 시스템에서의 구체적인 적용 사례와 실험을 통해 제안 방법을 검증한다.
