Discrete Event Simulation of Bus Terminals: A Modular Approach with a High Spatial Resolution

Figure 1

The path of one vehicle through the modules of the model. The vehicle is generated in one of the entry modules, pass through a series of driving and stop modules (this may include path choices where there are branching present) and leave the simulation at one of the exit modules. Each module uses a set of functions to determine the duration of activities. These functions include interactions with other vehicles and the environment.
