title = "Modeling space to support use-pattern simulation in buildings",
abstract = "Event based approaches to simulating use-patterns in buildings require descriptions of space which are not readily available in contemporary BIM or CAD tools. The required description should accommodate a spatialized description of actors, a method for describing how these actors move in the space, and a method for describing and updating features of the space. A modular, extensible system for modeling space and movement of actors using a hierarchical adaptation of the A* search algorithm is described in this paper. This system provides a modular, extensible data model for describing Events and simulating how people move in buildings. The system is demonstrated using an abstract case.",
