First steps towards a state-of-the-art parking simulator

This paper describes the design of SimPark, an agent-based micro-simulator with state-of-the-art parking components. The goal is to allow the simulation of parking policies and strategies while capturing their effects on traffic flow and personal schedules. Though individuals’ parking strategies are an important part of the simulator, they are out of scope in the presented research. All other components of the simulator are discussed in depth and compared with existing parking simulators.
