Optimizing evacuation flow in simple agent-based models — •Tobias Galla — Complex Systems and Statistical Physics Group, School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Manchester, Manchester M13 9PL, United Kingdom

I will discuss simple cellular automata of pedestrian motion, including stylized models based on exclusion processes, to describe situations in which agents have to choose between several escape routes during an evacuation event. Based on simulations, and where feasible analytical approaches, we compute control strategies, maximising the total current through the system. We also address the effects of agent-to-agent communication in such situations.
