Computation Speed of the F.A.S.T. Model

Tobias Kretz

Abstract

The F.A.S.T. model for microscopic simulation of pedestrians was formulated with the idea of parallelizability and small computation times in general in mind, but so far it was never demonstrated, if it can in fact be implemented efficiently for execution on a multi-core or multi-CPU system. In this contribution results are given on computation times for the F.A.S.T. model on an eight-core PC.
