Abstract
To interact with a simulation at runtime is often demanded within the scope of research studies. Therefore the microscopic traffic simulation software SUMO has a real-time I/O data interface (TraCI). This interface offers the possibility for a bidirectional communication between the user application and the simulation. Only few software implementations can handle that protocol, one of them is the Python TraCI Client being included into the simulation suite. Though depending on the preferred programming language, a specific implementation is needed. A solution designed to cover the problem is a standardized protocol interacting with SUMO, like the simple object access protocol (SOAP). This protocol can easily be integrated into a lot of programming languages, and is implemented as part of a Web service. This solution offers a lot of opportunities e.g. an unlimited number of clients.
