â  regional and urban planning instruments contain an extensive range of concepts and methods. these methods are important for understanding the complex identity of cities and the prediction of their future. today majority of planners and urban planning authorities believe that the use of these methods can help us to better understand urban systems and predict their behavior. in this regard the...

Urban Dynamics modeling needs to implement spatial organization emergence in order to describe the development of services evolution and their usage within spatial centers. In this paper, we propose an extension of the nest building algorithm with multi-center, multi-criteria and adaptive processes. We combine a decentralized approach based on emergent clustering mixed with spatial constraints ...

Much of the United States is urbanizing, increasing importance developing Extension programs geared toward urban audiences. There has been an interest in agriculture (UA) recent years as outgrowth “local food” movement. The COVID-19 pandemic increased awareness food system resilience, which can play a role. Developing specifically targeted to farming clientele bolster Cooperative Extension’s ro...

This paper attempts to give the solution for the urban scenario using DV cast protocol. Normally DV cast protocol is the best solution for highway traffic. But this paper proposed urban dv cast (UDV) protocol to deal with the urban traffic. This UDV protocol is extension of DV cast protocol. Our aim is to address the urban scenario where vehicles are equipped with sensors or wireless devices to...

This paper discusses the information needs of urban and peri-urban livestock keepers and the various information sources used and their effectiveness in disseminating livestock information. Mixed method approach was the methodology used in the study whereby quantitative data was gathered using questionnaires while qualitative data was gathered using in-depth interviews and participant observati...

Due to the inherent discrete nature of sensing, interpolation is a key activity in sensing. Interpolation in urban computing faces an unprecedented inference issue that was not present in large scale traditional sensing environments. Obstacles such as buildings and walls are prevalent in urban sensing, and it is important to consider them in urban sensing interpolation. This paper introduces an...
