Abstract

This paper addresses the issue of application of methodology included in NIST technical note 1822: The Process of Verification and Validation of Building Fire Evacuation Models [1] in terms of CA crowd dynamics models. The note is a recently released document (November 2013), that proposes a set of verification and validation (V&V) tests as well as methods for an uncertainty analysis. The main aim of this paper is to investigate these tests and methods applied to CA models by showing results of sample tests and discussing CA specific issues.
