Description: "Urban processes like segregation, migration, or economic transition take place at different temporal and spatial scales. Adequate modeling and simulation techniques are in great demand which consider bottom-up and top-down relationships equally. This volume presents approaches within the field of complexity theory, ranging from spatial-econometric models to geostatistical techniques and multi-agent system simulations, to analyze and visualize patterns of social organization, individual behavior, and spatial fabrics."--Publisher's description.
