Situated Cellular Agent (SCA) is a modeling and computational tool based on multi-agent systems principles whose roots are on cellular automata. In this chapter, after an introduction of main objectives and motivations of SCA approach within the research context on pedestrians and crowds dynamics, we describe some modeling examples in which SCA formal tools have been exploited to represent relevant crowd features and dynamics. The chapter ends with an overview of current and future developments on the modeling tools and on the software environment we adopt to support the design and execution of SCA-based models.
