A Cognitive Driver Model

Abstract

many different approaches to understand the process of driving a car exist, we try to simulate it within this project. This methodology fits wll into our institute´s work where traffic simulations play an important role. We not only hope to gain some information about the most concerned topics on driver related problems - issues on ergonomics and traffic security - but also some knowledge about traffic itself. We hope this knowledge will help us to improve microscopic traffic models used for large area simulations. Herein, som basic concepts the model incorporates and the main problems during the research and implementation are described.
