A geographic automata model of residential mobility
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper is described a model of residential mobility, built to simulate individual households, their perception of and reaction to varying conditions across different scales of interaction, and their movements to occupy housing in a physical, social, and economic environment. The methodology underpinning the model is based on an automata core, which leverages the advantages it offers in terms of representing individual entities and their rule-based interactions. This methodology is extended, however, to incorporate geography-specific functionality, with advantages for the modeling of human systems. The applicability of the methodology is demonstrated through the development of a rich model of residential mobility, in which individual households interact with other households and real-estate infrastructure, dynamically in space and time, to form synthetic communities and artificial property submarkets. Use of the model for what-if experimentation is demonstrated with synthetic economic and sociodemographic simulation scenarios. DOI:10.1068/b31070

متن کاملPost modern comfort as a factor in gentrification of city, modeled in Cellular Automata
The aim of this study is to investigate the discrete factors of gentrification modeled by cellular Automata. The gentrification is the arriving of middle and high social classes in the inner-city areas. It corresponds to the residential mobility of solvent households, attracted by residential comfort and the central retailing equipment. The proximity, diversity and quality of this equipment bec...

The purpose of this paper is to present a spatial agent-based model of N-person prisoner's dilemma that is designed to simulate the collective communication and cooperation within a socio-geographic community. Based on a tight coupling of REPAST and a vector Geographic Information System, the model simulates the emergence of cooperation from the mobility behaviors and interaction strategies of ...
متن کاملStudying natives’ and minorities’ geographic mobility and their reactivity to local ethnic composition across the Atlantic
This article provides empirical results on the patterns of native and immigrant geographic mobility in France. Using longitudinal data, we measure mobility from one French municipality (commune) to another over time and estimate the effect of the initial municipality’s ethnic composition on the probability of moving out. Relying on a unique methodology, we try to correct for biases related to s...
متن کاملInner-City Gentrification Simulation Using Hybrid Models of Cellular Automata and Multi-Agent Systems
Gentrification, as one example of complex urban behaviors, has enjoyed the spotlight among researchers in various fields of study such as economics, politics, sociology, and geography for about four decades. Most former research discusses theoretical issues, causes, and consequences of gentrification, but do not typically focus on building models to describe the dynamical process of gentrificat...
