Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Evacuation simulation has been used as a tool to imitate human actions at the time of disaster. Among many evacuation simulations, a multi-agent system (MAS) is often used to simulate evacuation, where meaningful entities at the time of disaster including evacuees are included as autonomous agents. To realize promote evacuation, appropriate local information needs to be certainly transmitted to the evacuees. In this paper, we propose a local information transmitting system where taxis play a role of information transmitters. Since taxis have a mobility property, their allocation patterns can vary within the target area. Effectiveness of information transmission depending on the taxi allocation pattern is evaluated through MAS computer simulation. Finally, the simulation results show how the degree of taxi location bias affects information transmission effectiveness
