  • Title: The virtual marathon: parallel computing supports crowd simulations.
    Author: Yilmaz E, Isler V, Cetin YY.
    Journal: IEEE Comput Graph Appl; 2009; 29(4):26-33. PubMed ID: 19798860.
    Abstract:
    To be realistic, an urban model must include appropriate numbers of pedestrians, vehicles, and other dynamic entities. Using a parallel-computing architecture, researchers simulated a marathon with more than a million participants. To simulate participant behavior, they used fuzzy logic on a GPU to perform millions of inferences in real time.
