CROWD SIMULATION IN THE AREAS OF PEACEKEEPING OPERATIONS

Diplomska naloga se osredotoča na reševanje problema simulacije večje množice ljudi, za potrebe simulatorja območij, na katerih potekajo mirovne operacije. Ljudje, ki so del teh množic, lahko imajo mnoge različne vloge, poudarek pa je predvsem na simuliranju civilnega prebivalstva na takšnih območjih. Takšen simulator množic predstavlja del simulacijskega okolja, kot ga uporabljajo vojaki pred odhodom na mirovne operacije, da se spoznajo s postopki in nevarnostmi, ki jih čakajo. Problemom in rešitvam simulacije sta dodana tudi opis možne celovite rešitve, to je aplikacije SML (Simulator množice ljudi), in njena primerjava z nekaterimi komercialnimi paketi.This diploma is focused on solving a problem of simulating larger crowds of people, that appear in areas, where peacekeeping operations are taking place, mostly as civilians. Such simulators represent parts of larger simulation environments, which are used to prepare soldiers before embarking on peacekeeping operations, to get familiar with the procedures and dangers that await them there. An additional solution is presented in the form of an application, called SML (Crowd simulator), and is compared side-to-side with some similar commercial packages
