Abstract: The focus of this research project was to develop a new simulation framework for analyzing traffic networks with Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) and/or Advanced Traffic Management Systems ( ATMS). The report describes the development of DYNASMART (DYnamic Network Assignment-Simulation Model for Advanced Road Telematics). The report is presented as follows: Chapter 1 discusses the simulation approach of DYNASMART and explains the traffic control features incorporated in it during the research. Chapter 2 discuss the simulations performed with a trial network with ATMS controls. Chapter 3 concentrates on the ATIS simulations on the Anaheim network. Results from the simulations of traffic management for special-events traffic from the Anaheim stadium are presented in Chapter 4, followed by overall conclusions.
