PANEL
SESSION: INTEGRATING DEMAND AND NETWORK MODELS
In research and practice, there have been many
advances on both the travel demand modeling (e.g., activity-based models) and
travel network modeling (e.g., traffic microsimulation and dynamic traffic
assignment). However, there has been less attention to the integration of these
advanced models. Current integration techniques (e.g., loose coupling of these
models to transfer data from one to the other) do not take advantage of the
added behavioral data available in each model, nor do they achieve consistency
among parameters that are used in both demand and network models. This panel
session brings together top researchers with experience in both demand and network
modeling to discuss the status of the field, critical issues, innovative
research, and future directions.
