Various sciences and specialties have tried to understand the phenomenon and identify the causes in order to obtain an appropriate solution. The present work introduces the extension of a system oriented to agents whose purpose is to reduce the waiting time of the drivers in an intersection of streets; modelling now vehicles (cars and taxis), pedestrians and an intelligent traffic light that evaluates the weights of the flows in two directions (X and Y), turn left and right. For which, the validation was carried out in six possible scenarios, defined by means of the variation of the flow of vehicles and pedestrians, of a turning frequency in 20 and 80 and the application of different adjustment factors for intelligent traffic lights. The simulation environment was implemented in NetLogo, which allowed comparing the impact of the use of the intelligent traffic light versus a fixed-time traffic light. Finally, we will present the conclusions and future work. Las pérdidas de tiempo por congestión y embotellamientos de tráfico son sucesos corrientes en las ciudades por una configuración no óptima de los semáforos. Diversas ciencias y especialidades han intentado comprender el fenómeno e identificar las causas en pos de obtener una solución apropiada. El presente trabajo introduce la extensión de un sistema orientado a agentes cuyo fin es reducir el tiempo de espera de los conductores en una intersección de calles; modelando ahora vehículos (autos y taxis), peatones y un semáforo inteligente que evalúa los pesos de los flujos en dos direcciones (X e Y), giro a la izquierda y derecha.  Para lo cual, la validación fue llevada a cabo en seis escenarios posibles, definidos por medio de la variación del flujo de vehículos y peatones, de una frecuencia de giro en 20 y 80 y la aplicación de diferentes factores de ajustes para los semáforos inteligentes. El entorno de simulación se implementó en NetLogo, lo que permitió comparar el impacto del uso del semáforo inteligente versus un semáforo de tiempos fijos. Finalmente, presentaremos las conclusiones y el trabajo futuro. application/pdf text/html http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/view/59 10.37537/rev.elektron.2.2.59.2018 spa FIUBA http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/view/59/47 http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/view/59/141 http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/downloadSuppFile/59/21 http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/downloadSuppFile/59/22 Copyright (c) 2018 Joaquín Nacht, Mariana Falco, Gabriela Robiolo http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 Elektron; Vol 2, No 2 (2018); 83-94 Elektron; Vol 2, No 2 (2018); 83-94 2525-0159 multi-agent systems; agent-oriented programming; traffic; NetLogo sistemas multi-agentes; programación orientada a agentes; tráfico; NetLogo Modelling and Simulation of a Street Intersection in a Multi-Agent Context Modelado y Simulación de una Intersección de Calles en un Contexto Multi-Agente info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=elektron&d=59_oai
