An Implementation of Artificial Transportation Systems based on JXTA

An artificial transportation system is a new type of traffic simulation software that employs agent modeling, distributed computing and concept of artificial societies to support the research and development in transportation. In this paper, models of vehicles, transportation infrastructures and a shopping center are described first, and the design and implementation of the basic ideas of artificial transportation systems based on a framework using P2P computing platform JXTA are stated in steps. Future work and issues related to operational mechanisms and strategies for such implementation are also addressed.
