Abstract The present status of a laboratory being developed for real-time simulation of command and control functions in transportation systems is discussed. Details are given on the simulation models and on programming techniques used in defining and evaluating the maximum effectiveness of controllers in future air traffic control systems. The topics include simulation philosophy, program language, processing time, macro approach to air traffic simulation, FORTRAN approach, display software, multi-modal transportation systems, bus routing simulation and rapid transit and highway system simulation. The equipment of the laboratory is described.
