Abstract
Aurora object-oriented framework is a set of generic Java classes and interfaces used as base objects in applications that model flow networks. A network consists of directed links, nodes and monitors. Nodes can be complex, being networks themselves. Controllers on nodes control flows coming from the input links. Monitors are special objects whose purpose is to monitor the state of given links and feed the observed data to controllers or generate events. Events change network configuration or inputs and are triggered at specified times. They can be user-defined, or generated by monitors based on the data observed. Aurora Road Network Modeler (RNM) is a tool set for operational planning and management of travel corridors (freeways and surrounding arterials), which is based on Aurora object-oriented framework. Currently, it consists of three graphical applications with intuitive user interface: Simulator runs macroscopic traffic simulations, allowing the user to create simulation scenarios by means of events; Configurator is used to build road network configurations from scratch or edit the existing ones; and GIS Importer extracts road information from the GIS .shp and .dbf files and saves it in the XML format of Aurora configuration file. Aurora RNM is open source and can be freely downloaded from the internet.
