A Building Evacuation Model Integrated with Multiple Algorithms

Due to the increasing frequency of terrorist attacks all over the world, we designed an emergency evacuation model under the situation of the terrorist attacks. This model uses the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) as a macro solution, the Cellular Automata (CA) as a micro-control method, and the Queuing Theory Model (QTM) to solve the queuing problem of escape exits. Based on the model we built, the optimized evacuation plan under different conditions were obtained.
