Abstract Whenever there are crowded spaces, queuing occurs. Many different situations force people to queue: Waiting for a service counter, lining up for a train or bus, queuing in front of bottlenecks or simply waiting at a supermarket checkout. Such queuing evolves in many different ways, depending on the situation, the reason for queuing, the culture, the geometry and many more. Simulation models have to cope with such different situations and behaviours. This paper gives an overview on different queuing situations and corresponding models that exist for pedestrian modelling. Additionally, it introduces a new queuing model for organised queuing without demarcation tapes. First visual validations are shown.
