SUMO 2016 – Traffic, Mobility, and Logistics
2016
Dear reader,
You are holding in your hands a volume of the series „Reports of the DLR-Institute of Transportation
Systems“. We are publishing in this series fascinating, scientific topics from the Institute of Trans-
portation Systems of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fur Luft- und Raumfahrt
e.V. – DLR) and from his environment. We are providing libraries with a part of the circulation.
Outstanding scientific contributions and dissertations are here published as well as projects reports
and proceedings of conferences in our house with different contributors from science, economy and
politics.
With this series we are pursuing the objective to enable a broad access to scientific works and results.
We are using the series as well as to promote practically young researchers by the publication of the
dissertation of our staff and external doctoral candidates, too. Publications are important milestones
on the academic career path. With the series „Reports of the DLR-Institute of Transportation
Systems / Berichte aus dem DLR-Institut fur Verkehrssystemtechnik“ we are widening the spectrum
of possible publications with a building block. Beyond that we understand the communication of
our scientific fields of research as a contribution to the national and international research landscape
in the fields of automotive, railway systems and traffic management.
With this volume we publish the proceedings of the SUMO Conference 2016 which was held from
23rd to 25th May 2016 with a focus on traffic, mobility, and logistics. SUMO is an open source tool
for traffic simulation that provides a wide range of traffic planning and simulation functionalities.The
conference proceedings offer an overview of the applicability of the SUMO tool suite as well as its
universal extensibility due to the availability of the source code. The major topic of this fourth
edition of the SUMO conference are the different facets of moving objects occurring as personal
mobility and freight delivery as well as communicating networks of intelligent vehicles. Several
articles cover heterogeneous traffic networks, junction control and new traffic model extensions to
the simulation. Subsequent specialized issues such as disaster management aspects and applying
agile development techniques to scenario building are targeted as well. At the conference the
international user community exchanged their experiences in using SUMO. With this volume we
provide an insight to these experiences as inspiration for further projects with the SUMO suite.
