Data Quality in Traffic Management: Framework and Real-World Impacts

Future Transportation
Effective traffic management relies on the availability of high-quality traffic data to support real-time decision-making for optimizing traffic flow, enhancing safety, and reducing environmental impacts. This study aims to address the lack of integrated

Microsimulation models on child and adolescent health: a scoping review protocol

BMJ Open
Introduction Microsimulation models are computer-based models, which can be employed to simulate the behaviour of microagents, such as children and adolescents, to understand the potential behavioural and economic effects of health interventions or ...

An Efficient Parallelization of Microscopic Traffic Simulation

Applied Sciences
Large-scale traffic simulations at a microscopic level can mimic the physical reality in great detail so that innovative transport services can be evaluated. However, the simulation times of such scenarios is currently too long to be practical.

A Spatio-Temporal Microsimulation Framework for Charging Impact Analysis of Electric Vehicles in Residential Areas: Sensitivity Analysis and Benefits of Model Complexity

Energies
The increasing share of electric vehicles (EVs) offers many advantages, including a reduced CO2 footprint over the vehicles’ lifetime and improved resource efficiency through the recycling of high-voltage batteries. At the same time, the growing EV share

Comparing 3 Evidence‐Based Strategies to Reduce Cardiovascular Disease Burden: An Individual‐Based Cardiometabolic Policy Simulation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Understanding the real‐world impact of clinical trials that change risk factors is important for health policy. We developed a microsimulation that estimates the population‐level benefits in each US state of cardiometabolic interventions ...

Simulation of an application of the Hartz-IV reform in Austria

Public Sector Economics, 2017
This paper examines the application of the German Hartz-IV model in Austria. If the Hartz-IV reform were to be transferred to Austria, this would imply that instead of unemployment assistance (Notstandshilfe), the social-assistance-type minimum income ...
