Using the InterSCSimulator to Evaluate Systems and Urban Scenarios Eduardo Felipe Zambom Santana, Fabio Kon 1 Departamento de Ciˆ encia da Computac¸˜ ao – Universidade de S˜ ao Paulo (USP) S˜ ao Paulo – SP – Brasil {efzambom,kon}@ime.usp.br Abstract. The InterSCSimulator is a scalable, open-source Smart City simu- lator. The primary use of this tool is to evaluate complex Smart City scenarios and to test Smart City systems such as software platforms and applications. This simulator was already used in different contexts, such as to generate workload to Smart City platforms experiments, to evaluate the impacts of autonomous ve- hicles systems, and to assess the impact of a new subway line in S˜ ao Paulo. This paper presents the main features and use cases of the InterSCSimulator, providing an information source to possible new users and contributors to this project. Resumo. O InterSCSimulator ´ e um simulador de Cidades Inteligentes es- cal´ avel e de c´ odigo aberto. O principal uso dessa ferramenta ´ e para avaliar cen´ arios complexos de Cidades Inteligentes e para facilitar os testes de sis- temas de Cidades Inteligentes como plataformas e aplicac¸˜ oes. Esse simulador j´ a foi utilizado em diferentes contextos como na gerac¸˜ ao de dados para testes de plataformas de Cidade inteligentes, na avaliac¸˜ ao de sistemas de carros autˆ onomos e na avaliac¸˜ ao de impact de uma nova linha de metrˆ o na cidade de S˜ ao Paulo. Esse artigo apresenta os prinicipais requisitos funcionais e casos de uso do InterSCSimulator, sendo uma importante fonte de informac¸˜ ao para poss´ıveis novos usu´ arios e contribuidores desse projeto. 1. Introduction Performing tests and experiments of Smart Cities systems can be a challenging activity for different reasons. For example, it is hard for a research group to have all the required equipment for large scale experiments such as sensors and actuators. Moreover, some scenarios need more complicated and expensive equipment, such as vehicles and smart meters. The use of simulators that can simulate smart city scenarios and devices can help in the development and experiments of commercial and research applications. InterSCSimulator is an open-source, large-scale, smart city simulator [Santana et al. 2017] 1 . It has been used to simulate different scenarios in the last years, such as smart parking applications, subway lines, and bus models. InterSCSimula- tor can simulate different entities, such as vehicles, sensors, and subway stations. Also, experiments showed that the simulator could execute very large-scale scenarios with 1 InterSCSimulator repository - https://github.com/ezambomsantana/smart_city_ model
