Cellular Automata and Applications

We propose a modification of the widely known Benjamin–Johnson–Hui (BJH) cellular automaton model for single-lane traffic simulation. In particular, our model includes a 'slow-to-stop' rule that exhibits more realistic microscopic driver behaviour than the BJH model. We present some statistics related to fuel economy and pollution generation and show that our model differs greatly in these measures. We give concise results based on extensive simulations using our system.
