This paper has two major themes: (a) to describe existing traffic simulation models and their applications in freeway corridor analysis and (b) to demonstrate the need for integration of research, education, and implementation activities as a key for the enhancement of simulation modeling practice. The overall objective of this paper is to provide a state-of-the-art document on freeway corridor models and to encourage researchers and practitioners to work closer together in simulation modeling. The paper also includes an extensive bibliography, which is an attempt to include all published papers that describe the development and application of available freeway corridor models. (Author)
