In this paper, meta‐optimization and cellular automata have been introduced as a modeling environment for solving large‐scale and complex transportation problems. A constrained system optimum combined trip distribution and assignment problem was selected to demonstrate the applicability of the cellular automata approach over classical mixed integer formulation. A mathematical formulation for the selected problem has been developed and a methodology for applying cellular automata has been presented. A numerical example network was used to illustrate the potential for using cellular automata as a modeling environment for solving optimization problems.
