| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A mass evacuation simulator enhanced with high performance computing was developed with the aim of quantitatively estimating the effectiveness of various strategies to accelerate tsunami triggered mass evacuations. It is based on multi-agent system and included sophisticated agents which sense dynamic changes in their visible surrounding and mimic the roles of different people; residents, pedestrians, car users, police and volunteers. A high resolution model of the environment is included so that state of each square meter can be modelled. The system is enhanced with high performance computing to meet the computational demand of the sophisticated agents and high resolution environment. It is tuned to efficiently run in the K-computer at AICS, Kobe, so that Monte-Carlo simulations of evacuation of millions of people over long coastal stretches of several hundreds of square kilometers can be simulated.
