Urban Dynamics Designing an Integrated Model

Urban Dynamics Designing an Integrated Model by C. S. Bertuglia, published by Routledge on June 7, 2012, is a comprehensive examination of contemporary computer models used to simulate urban systems. This edition, spanning 438 pages, delves into two significant traditions of model-building: the development of integrated models based on Lowry’s foundational research and the focused study of specific submodels employing various techniques. The book aims to construct a cohesive model-building exercise that merges these approaches, ultimately presenting an operational model as a practical example.
Readers will find a detailed analysis that emphasizes the integration of advanced submodels within a modular framework. The work addresses key topics in business and economics, urban and regional studies, and sociology, making it relevant for those interested in the dynamics of urban systems. This edition serves as a resource for understanding the complexities of urban modeling and the methodologies that underpin it, providing insights into both theoretical and practical aspects of the subject.
Official synopsis Publisher
Originally published in 1990, this work analyses the use of contemporary computer models to simulate urban systems. The work deals with the two significant traditions of model-building: firstly the building of integrated models following the seminal research of Lowry first published in 1964, but with relatively simple submodels; and secondly, intensive research on particular submodels with a variety of techniques. This volume constructs a model-building exercise which integrates the two traditions: an integrated model (in a modular form with alternative components) using the most advanced submodels. The book concludes with a presentation of an example of an operational model of this type.
