SUMO

Simulation of Urban MObility

Traffic simulations are of immense importance for researchers as well as practitioners in the field of transportation. SUMO has been available since 2001 and provides a wide range of traffic planing and simulation applications. SUMO consists of a suite of tools covering road network imports and enrichment, demand generation and assignment and a state-of-the-art microscopic traffic simulation capable to simulate private and public transport modes, as well as person-based trip chains. Being open, SUMO is also ready to implement new behavioral models or to control the simulation remotely using various programming environments.

These and other features make SUMO one of the most used traffic simulations with a large and international user community. Further information about SUMO can be found at the project's web pages located at http://sumo.sf.net.

The conference aims on exchanging experience in using SUMO, and presenting results or solutions obtained using the software. We expect a large variety of research topics and usage approaches. If you are doing a research project with SUMO and want to present your results please submit an abstract.

There is a flyer containing most of the important informations.

The first day will include a presentation of recently added features and how they can be used, followed by a discussion on next development steps. Besides presenting current and oncoming projects, this day is meant to force discussion on building a community that assures a user-aware continuation of work on SUMO.
Target audience: SUMO developers and long-term users

The Conference days will allow You to present Your usage of SUMO, and to talk with other users and SUMO developers.
Target audience: SUMO users
