Traffic Analysis Toolbox Volume VII: Predicting Performance with Traffic Analysis Tools

Overview

The purpose of this study is to assess and provide an understanding on how well simulation and traffic analysis tools predict performance, and identify elements and issues which practitioners should be aware of to effectively apply these tools. Often, misapplication of a tool can change the results enough to significantly impact the decision making process. Since the modeling process is often used to support investment decisions on higher cost projects, misapplication of a tool might result in significant cost implications.
