Seminar by Matthew Barryman at ASU, 1 of 3

This is the first of three video segments of a seminar given by Matthew Barryman, Senior Research Fellow, SMART Infrastructure Facility, University of Wollongong, at Arizona State University. The seminar is titled An Integrated Land Use and Transportation Planning Tool for Sydney, in which Barryman explains about the SMARTInfrastructure Facility at the University of Wollongong, Australia. This facility has been building an agent-based model to explore the feedbacks between transportation and land use. Its focus has been on live-ability as a key driver of agent's location choice, and in addition to transport it has included factors such as: housing costs, population density, socio-cultural diversity and available amenities. In order to build this model is has integrated a Repast Simphony (2.0) based model as the core of the platform with Transims and a HTML+CSS+JavaScript front end. In this presentation Barryman covers the current research into agent behaviours, as well as the software system that have put together to implement this.
