dc.description.abstract
The paper reports about a project, where an agent-based module of location decisions of retailers has been implemented into the agent-based traffic simulator MATSim-T. The retailer module focuses on the retailers’ location choice. Retailers are modeled as agents in the simulation and are allowed to relocate their stores, according to a given strategy, in order to maximize the number of their customers. The paper discusses first the conceptual background of the model and then the actual implementation. A test case, a large scale scenario representing the urban agglomeration of Zurich, Switzerland, is presented. The discussion of the results focuses on possible practical applications of the tool and on further developments.
