This contribution demonstrates the potential gain for the quality of results
in a simulation of pedestrians when estimated remaining travel time is
considered as a determining factor for the movement of simulated pedestrians.
This is done twice: once for a force-based model and once for a cellular
automata-based model. The results show that for the (degree of realism of)
simulation results it is more relevant if estimated remaining travel time is
considered or not than which modeling technique is chosen -- here force-based
vs. cellular automata -- which normally is considered to be the most basic
choice of modeling approach.Comment: preprint of Pedestrian and Evacuation 2012 conference (PED2012)
