متن کاملExploring Tradeoffs in Demand-Side and Supply-Side Management of Urban Water Resources Using Agent-Based Modeling and Evolutionary Computation
Urban water supply systems may be managed through supply-side and demand-side strategies, which focus on water source expansion and demand reductions, respectively. Supply-side strategies bear infrastructure and energy costs, while demand-side strategies bear costs of implementation and inconvenience to consumers. To evaluate the performance of demand-side strategies, the participation and wate...
متن کاملGlobal water resources: vulnerability from climate change and population growth.
The future adequacy of freshwater resources is difficult to assess, owing to a complex and rapidly changing geography of water supply and use. Numerical experiments combining climate model outputs, water budgets, and socioeconomic information along digitized river networks demonstrate that (i) a large proportion of the world's population is currently experiencing water stress and (ii) rising wa...
متن کاملAgent-based simulation approach to urban dynamics modeling
This article presents a general agent-based simulation approach that captures agents’ decision-making processes and dynamic relationships that determine urban shape. The article shows how to simulate urban growth patterns and land-use change dynamics using economic assumptions and by modeling the interactions of computational agents.
متن کاملAgent Based Model to Simulate Urban Land Use Change
The economic reform and open door policy had a profound impact on Iran's urbanization. Because human-environment interactions are so complex, Agent Based Models (ABM) provides a powerful new set of tools to scholars with diverse background. ABM strength lies in their ability of combining spatial modeling techniques with biophysical and socioeconomic models. In this study, two Landsat TM images ...
