Overview

Aimsun was founded in 1997 and developed Aimsun Next traffic modeling software, which simulates mobility in networks.[2]

Aimsun also develops Aimsun Live, which is a simulation-based traffic forecasting software[3] as well as Aimsun Auto for studying path planning in driverless vehicles,[4] and Aimsun Ride for modeling demand-responsive transportation services.[5]

Aimsun was acquired by Siemens in 2018 for an undisclosed sum, as part of the Siemens Mobility Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) unit.[6][7]

In 2021, Siemens Mobility carved out the Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) unit, of which Aimsun is a part, and renamed it Yunex Traffic.[8]
