VADERE is a simulation framework for pedestrian flow analysis. VADERE's core features:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- CLI **and** an easy-to-use GUI interface.
|
|
|
|
- Shipped with different locomotion models:
|
|
|
|
* Gradient Navigation Model (GNM)
|
|
|
|
* Optimal Steps Model (OSM)
|
|
|
|
* Social Force Model (SFM)
|
|
|
|
* Others: Behavioral Heuristics Model (BHM), ...

## VADERE Implementation Using MVC Pattern

**TODO:** Describe the general software structure according to MVC pattern.

## VADERE's Core: The Simulation Loop
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Like many other simulators, VADERE consists of a simulation loop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
|
|
double currentTime = 0;
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
while (simIsRunning) {
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
model.update(currentTime);
|
|
|
|
currentTime++;
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The simulation loop is implemented in class `Simulation`. In each simulation loop, the locomotion model is updated. The locomotion model searches for the next position of an agent (a simulated pedestrian). I.e., a locomotion model implements a well-defined interface `Model`. This concept makes VADERE a generic framework in which different locomotion models can be implemented easily.
