ACMICS: An Agent Communication Model for Interacting Crowd Simulation

We present and evaluate a novel approach to simulate communication between the agents. Our approach distinguishes low-and high-level communication tasks. This separation makes it easy to extend and use it in new scenarios. We highlight the benefits of our approach using different simulation scenarios consisting of hundreds of agents. We also model evacuation behavior in unknown environments and highlight the benefits of our approach particularly in simulating such behavior.
