The MATSim user meeting will take place from 21. - 24. April 2009 at the Technische Univerität Berlin. See the directions for details.
For the tutorial part we will have talks in the morning held by MATSim developers from Berlin, Zürich and Lyon. In the afternoon we will offer tutorials on how to use MATSim for newcomers as well as for advanced users. This will include, as much as possible, elements such as
During the user meeting current projects and applications of MATSim will be presented and other MATSim users will report about their experiences with MATSim. Users are invited to present their own experiences. If you want to present, please let us know a title by 31.01.2009.
Participants can separately register for the tutorial part and the user meeting part. Registration fees are:

Participants are kindly requested to organize their accommodation themselves:
Please use the key "matsim" for your reservation. This special offer is only available until 15.03.2009.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact Johannes Illenberger (illenberger@vsp.tu-berlin.de).
* Studentinnen und Studenten der TU Berlin zahlen keine Gebühr sofern sie das Seminar als Lehrveranstaltung 0533 L 013 (Multiagenten-Simulationen von Verkehr) belegen. Mittagessen und Abendessen sind nicht inbegriffen.
Note: The example code and the resulting population.xml file have been removed from the demand generation... archive because they don't reflect the recommended way this should be done. However those files are replaced by more recommended versions that are partly still under construction. Therefore they can be found within the matsim svn checkout in the package tutorial.example8DemandGeneration. If possible always try to use the MATSim API, i.e. all code within the packages below org.matsim.api. If this is not possible support us and report your problems on the developer mailing list.

should be possible to have leisure acts at homes of others
virus infection should be "possible" in busses
better model for leisure contacts, shop contacts
agents should be able to travel together (ride sharing)
keep code robust
communication-model for agents (e.g. for telematics)
extend evolutionary algo to other agents then just persons (e.g. retailer, public transport, ...)
ways to compare plans, especially planned/executed
withinday replanning
"autostart" new scenarios: make simple demand modelling easier
simulate other time scales than 1 day
improve scenario management (meta-db, data-dump, jar of code)
