摘要：A micro-simulation framework allows for the combination of several highly disaggregated models integrating direct representations of individual actors and specific processes within detailed space and time frames. For some modelling applications like traffic, disaggregation is often necessary in order to capture system non-linearities, to avoid the heterogeneity leading to aggregate biases when behaviour is non-linear, and to provide detailed information for process understanding and informed decision making. The main objective of this paper is to develop a prototype of spatio-temporal multi-agent system for a micro-simulation of highway traffic at the peak traffic times. During the last few years, various authors have extended the paradigm and proposed various enhancements to strengthen its framework. This paper has integrated those findings with our own experiences of developing geospatial information system (GIS) for transportation studies and for analyzing travel behaviours. The proposed methods were implemented by ArcGIS 9.2 utilization and customization. To evaluate the performance of the outlined method, some experiments performed by using actual road maps of a part of Tehran traffic network. Tests of the proposed methods are conducted and the results show the efficiency of the algorithm and support our hypotheses
