Abstract
We present a simple cellular automaton based model of decision making during evacuation.
Evacuees have to choose between two different exit routes, resulting in a strategic
decision making problem. Agents take their decisions based on utility functions, these can
be revised as the evacuation proceeds, leading to complex interaction between individuals
and to jamming transitions. The model also includes the possibility to communicate and
exchange information with distant agents, information received may affect the decision of
agents. We show that under a wider range of evacuation scenarios performance of the model
system as a whole is optimal at an intermediate fraction of evacuees with access to
communication
