Noordini Binti CheMan Urban Planning Group Supervisor : H.J.P.
Timmermans
- 2. Outline
- Preparation for the study
- Progress made in the first year
- 3. Introduction : Motivation
- Interest in modeling urban system increasing
- Contribution of advance modeling approach new models to improve
the understanding of urban development process
- Current development in Malaysia- economic region
- Integration of Multi-Agent System (MAS) and Geographical
Information System (GIS) - Progress in modern GIS tools and
technique
- 4. Goal and Objectives
- To analyze the complexity of regional and urban growth system,
identify and evaluate of the current methods that available for
modeling it.
- To develop and demonstrate the model of regional and urban
growth pattern.
- To identify how economic factor can contribute growth using MAS
modeling approach.
- To study on firm demography in the area as one of the
contribution to economic growth.
- To study the application and integration of Geographic
Information System (GIS) and multi-agent system (MAS)
technologies.
- 5. Research Framework Economic Growth Firm Demography Urban and
Regional Growth Urban Planning in Malaysia GIS + MAS MODELING
- 6. Understanding of urban and regional growth
- Urban growth = process of growth and decline of urban
areas.
Chronological Development of Urban Land Use models
- 7. Research Framework Economic Growth Firm Demography Urban and
Regional Growth Urban Planning in Malaysia GIS + MAS MODELING
- 8. Mechanism AGENT Time Firm Size Lifecycle
- 9. Economic growth and firm demography
- Economic growth = changes or increment in the level of
production of goods and services in the economy or a country over
period of time.
- Economic growth reflected urban growth.
- Firm demography = interesting concept = lifecycle of a
firm
- Firm demography gain popularity economic, regional science and
transportation.

MODELING
- 11. Definition
- collection of interacting autonomous agent each with their own
capabilities and goal
- Chen g, J. (2003). "Modeling Spatial & Temporal Urban
Growth.", International Institute for Geo-information Science and
Earth Observation, Enschede Netherlands.
- Geographical Information System (GIS)
- GIS is widely used to facilitate in analyzing, modeling,
manipulating, representation and displaying geo-referenced data in
order to solve complex problems which relate to planning and
management of resources
- NCGIA (1990). "NCGIA Core Curriculum in GIS." University of
California, Santa Barbara.
- 12. Integration of MAS and GIS
- GIS + MAS = enhance capability of urban simulation
technique
- Makes available a considerable amount of data and information
produced and used by users who commonly employ GIS.
- Model builder to validate the dynamic models.
- improves the results of decision process cooperate between
stakeholders and decision maker.

MODELING
- 14. Modeling as tools to understand growth pattern
- Modeling = help people communicate easier.
- Models = aid in decision making
- Model can mimic the complexity of urban growth system
