Prometheus methodology for agent-based simulation has been applied in this paper to develop a simulation for evacuation planning in the building. Interaction and communication during evacuation between agents through protocol and its capabilities showed that the behavior of real human can be presented in a computer simulation. Two scenarios according to evacuation condition has been applied to the system, those are leaving immediately scenario and finding an obstacle scenario. Exit sign has been modified in evacuation system became an agent which ant colony algorithm was embedded on it to determine feasible route during evacuation. A testing to check the consistency of simulation model has been provided using Prometheus design tool (PDT). © 2008 IEEE. date: 2008 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-57349163172&doi=10.1109%2fITSIM.2008.4632061&partnerID=40&md5=afabb526e178ace3df77feb5e2a3a3d5 id_number: 10.1109/ITSIM.2008.4632061 full_text_status: none publication: Proceedings - International Symposium on Information Technology 2008, ITSim volume: 4 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781424423286 citation: Rahman, A. and Mahmood, A.K.
