The TRANSIMS Operational Description provides an overview of the TRANSIMS software framework. It discusses the relationships among the time scales, entities, and detail included in the TRANSIMS models and introduces the TRANSIMS architecture. The TRANSIMS architectural description includes the component functions and the information flow among them. Examples illustrate how transportation planners might use TRANSIMS to assess the implications of transportation systems infrastructure and policy changes.
