✦ Synopsis

As increasingly sophisticated routing, navigation and trip-planning devices are installed in automobiles, it becomes necessary to consider the likely effects of such devices on overall traffic system performance. A simple simulation model of "rush-hour" commuting is presented and the system-level consequences of a variety of agent-level behavior patterns are explored. In the context of this model, increasingly sophisticated agent-level commuting strategies result in decreased system-level performance as measured by several criteria.

Game theorists have recommended many reasonable strategies in policy problems, using, in general, the concept of equilibrium strategy for analyzing the dynamic consequences of available policy options. One of the best known recommendations is that of George Tsebelis, which contends that increasing p
