    FORTRAN 77 Microsimulation at traffic signals

    Presumably MAtlab is quite costly?? I am not uinfortunately getting any financial help with this project, so I have to adopt the most economic method. I would like to spend more time on the modelling but I fear that any other approach than from thr ground up will prove beyond my financial means.

    FORTRAN 77 Microsimulation at traffic signals

    I wont be using actual loops, merely simulating them in the program. Similarly I will be simulating the vehicle flows. I will discharge them into the target area at a point upstream of the loops at a set time and velocity. Depending upon what the "car" finds in front will depend upon what it...

    FORTRAN 77 Microsimulation at traffic signals

    Well I have some knowledge of FORTRAN, it is essentially suited to mathematical problems (I am reliably informed, and I have a compiler for it. I have had a look at using C and C++ but as my knoweldge of these languages is less than that of Fortran, I would be starting lower down the ladder.

    FORTRAN 77 Microsimulation at traffic signals

    I am a civil engineer undertaking a research project into the comparison of conventional vehicle actauted traffic signals against MOVA. What I need to do is using FORTRAN develop a form of microsimulation, that enables individual vehciles to move, have a record of their position, and be able to...
