abstract="A simulation method is presented which enables a modeler to identify dangerous bottlenecks for emergency building evacuation and to test the sensitivity of occupant exit behavior to evacuation improvement strategies. The modeling method is tested against landmark evacuation data of Pauls and Jones, and used to predict problems and solutions for a complex evacuation situation involving a large university building with multiple exit choices. Some concluding remarks are addressed to a future research agenda for this method.<p />",
