Running transport simulations at scale
PATRIC explores a parallel simulation framework based on traffic clustering.
01
The question
Large transport simulations require substantial computing resources. As models grow, the challenge is to distribute the work while maintaining a useful representation of the transport system.
02
The contribution
This collaborative paper presents PATRIC, a high-performance parallel urban transport simulation framework based on traffic clustering. It addresses the computational side of running large simulation models.
03
Why it matters
Computational capacity affects which scenarios a research team can examine. The publication provides the technical framework and evaluation; the publisher’s version is the reference for its benchmarks and implementation details.
