Abstract

The distributed road traffic simulation is an important tool for control and analysis of large road traffic networks (e.g., an entire city or even state). For performing the simulation, it is necessary to divide the simulated road traffic network into sub networks, which are then simulated as processes on computers (nodes) of the distributed computer. To ensure a good performance of the distributed road traffic simulation, two aspects should be considered during the division of the road traffic network - the load-balancing of the resulting sub-networks and the minimization of the inter process communication [1, 2]. Legacy transportation systems are among the most important systems that need to be addressed in a proper manner. Congestion is considered as one of the common problems, especially during peak times of the day because of the weakness of the absorptive capacity of the roads network and the inefficiency of the transportation system to meet the required demands of the increasing traffic size
