In this paper a modeling framework for urban traffic systems (UTS) is presented.The model,used for agent based micro-simulation,describes both the traffic network and dynamic entities,namely vehicles,traffic lights,and pedestrians.The framework allows defining systematically the necessary components and their behavior of a model oriented to event driven simulation,which can be executed in a distributed way.In the model,the vehicles are conceived as mobile agents with decision making capabilities that interact with the environment and other entities within the traffic network,performing diverse activities according to numerous situations arisen during the simulation.
