The hypothesis presented in this paper is that there has been little interest in describing the key modules that these simulators must include, such as formally represented knowledge and a realistic simulated sensor model, and especially in providing researchers with tools to reuse, extend and interconnect modules from different works.defines the main modules identified and proposes the use of semantic web technologies as a cornerstone for the aforementioned holistic framework; provides a basic methodology to achieve the framework; identifies the main challenges; and presents an open and free software

This paper presents a traffic evacuation simulation system based on integrated multi-level driving-decision models which generate agents’ behavior in a united framework. The proposed integrated simulation system includes four key components: geospatial manager, agent manager, behavior manager, and mission manager. Together they provide the The means to accomplish one or more tasks under specific conditions.
