- TRANSIMS
TRANSIMS is one part of the multi-track Travel Model Improvement
Program sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transportation,
Environmental Protection Agency, and Department of Energy with the
purpose of developing new, integrated transportation and air
quality forecasting procedures necessary to satisfy the Intermodal
Surface Transportation Efficiency Act and the Clean Air Act and its
amendments.
- EpiSims
The Epidemiological Simulation System (EpiSims) has been developed
with support from the U.S. Departments of Energy, Homeland
Security, and Health and Human Services, with the purpose of
providing an experimental test bed for analyzing proposed responses
to natural or intentionally caused disease outbreaks.
- Population Dynamics
Critical information about people falls into two categories: (1)
static information that does not change over the course of a
simulation, including age, income, communication device ownership,
and home location; and (2) time-dependent information, such as an
individual's location, type of activity, and health status.
- Telecommunications
Research is being conducted to develop an end-to-end simulation
environment for representing and analyzing extremely large, complex
telecommunication networks that are made up of cellular networks,
public switched telephone networks, Internet networks, and ad hoc
mesh networks.
- Internet Economics and Commodity Markets
Markets are sensitive indicators of infrastructure disruptions and
are often used to gauge public mood and awareness in crisis
situations. We have recently designed and constructed a detailed
agent-based analysis tool for the simulation of large commodity
markets and the interdependencies with a physical infrastructure
using a synthetic urban population mobility data set.
- Synthetic Data
Products
NDSSL has produced several synthetic data sets that are being
released to the larger academic community for research. The data
sets are based on detailed microscopic simulation-based modeling
and integration techniques. The data set provided represent a
synthetic population of the city of Portland. We expect to make
available new and enhanced synthetic data products, including new
cities and regions, on a regular basis.
