  1. The Future of Software-in-the-Loop Simulation Training and Research Tom Urbanik The University of Tennessee

  2. Traffic Signal Objectives • Achieve policy objectives for people and goods • Maintain safe operations

  3. System Based Priority Control Drawbridges Railroad Emergency vehicles Pedestrians/Bikes Transit Trucks (including snow plows) SOV

  4. In The Old Days….. • Policy was easy to implement

  5. Today…..

  6. So What? • Need to evaluate existing or new policies • Traditional field studies are impractical and expensive • Traditional simulation models are unrealistic • Optimization software does not address new approaches

  7. So What (II)? • SILS is a tool that offers many opportunities • Training • Evaluation • Fine tuning • Research • Education

  8. What Have We Learned From MOST? • SILS is an effective approach for training • Getting the details right is hard • Getting the details right is important

  9. What’s Left to be Done? • More labs on “advanced” features • More delivery capability for education and training

  10. The Future • SILS will become more common • It will become the standard for comparison • It will allow even more experimentation • The software will become easier to use • Data requirements will become less
