A design and application of a multi-agent system for simulation of multi-actor spatial planning

Article Abstract:

Multi-agent Systems (MAS) that consist of agents representing organizations and interest groups involved in an urban allocation problem during a land use planning process are demonstrated. The potential and limitations of the MAS to build models that enable spatial planners to include the 'actor factor' in their analysis and design of spatial scenarios are discussed.
