Geospatial Analysis and Modeling of Urban Structure and Dynamics: An Overview

Jiang, Bin; Yao, Xiaobai

Pages: 3 –11

[Geographic information research and technologies have experienced over four decades of development, from the mainframe to the workstation to the desktop, and to today's laptop and mobile devices. Every important GIS development is driven by a significant breakthrough of mainstream information...

High-Resolution Geographic Data and Urban Modeling: The Case of Residential Segregation

Omer, Itzhak

Pages: 15 –29

[The increasing availability of geographic data at high resolution and good quality has improved our ability to investigate a city's social geography thanks to the data's enhancement of our capacity to integrate three fundamental dimensions: residential distributions, the built-up environment's...

Space Syntax and Pervasive Systems

Kostakos, Vassilis

Pages: 31 –52

[In this paper we describe our novel use of space syntax for the design and development of pervasive systems. Pervasive systems are computer systems that are designed to be “invisible” to users because they are designed to blend in with their environment and become part of the fabric of everyday...

Decentralized Spatial Computing in Urban Environments

Laube, Patrick; Duckham, Matt; Worboys, Mike; Joyce, Tony

Pages: 53 –74

[This chapter presents the concept of decentralized spatial computing (DeSC) as a way to embed dynamic spatial data capture and processing capabilities within our built urban environment. The chapter illustrates the potential of DeSC for safeguarding privacy in a dynamic location-based services...

Network Cities: A Complexity-Network Approach to Urban Dynamics and Development

Blumenfeld-Lieberthal, Efrat; Portugali, Juval

Pages: 77 –90

[The aim of this proposed research is to develop an urban simulation model (USM) specifically designed to study the evolution and dynamics of systems of cities. It is innovative in three respects: First, in its structure – the proposed model is built as a superposition of two types of models; the...

Scaling Analysis of the Cascade Structure of the Hierarchy of Cities

Chen, Yanguang

Pages: 91 –117

[The scaling relations indicating fractal nature can be employed to associate a hierarchy and a network of cities. The cascade structure of an urban hierarchy follows the 2n rule of size class, which can be formulated as a set of exponential functions. From a pair of exponential laws, we can...

The Dilemma of On-Street Parking Policy: Exploring Cruising for Parking Using an Agent-Based Model

Martens, Karel; Benenson, Itzhak; Levy, Nadav

Pages: 121 –138

[Virtually all major cities around the world face severe parking problems in their centers. While existing models of parking search and choice behavior do provide insight into the basic dynamics of parking in cities, as well as into the phenomenon of drivers cruising for on-street parking,...

Multiscale Modeling of Virtual Urban Environments and Associated Populations

Chaker, Walid; Moulin, Bernard; Thériault, Marius

Pages: 139 –162

[This chapter introduces a novel approach to model Virtual Urban Environments (VUE) by taking into account: (1) the multiscale issue, (2) activities’ locations, multi-modal transport networks and their relationships, and (3) the associated synthetic population. This new modeling approach is based...

Imageability and Topological Eccentricity of Urban Streets

Omer, Itzhak; Jiang, Bin

Pages: 163 –175

[Previous studies of the influence of structural qualities of urban street network on the image of the city are based mainly on centrality and connectivity measures taken from graph and space syntax theories. The paper suggests application of the structural property of eccentricity for...

A Spatial Analysis of Transportation Convenience in Beijing: Users’ Perception Versus Objective Measurements

Lu, Yongmei; Yin, Weihong; Chen, Jing

Pages: 177 –195

[This study investigates the convenience of urban transportation in Beijing municipality area. The analyses reported here consist of three parts − the spatial patterns of urban transportation Level of Service (LOS) perceived as transportation convenience by residents in Beijing, the spatial...
