本文认为,潜在的使用代理模型来探索理论的居住隔离在城市地区。生成实验的结果进行了基于代理的模拟隔离动态文件,不同的少数模型参数表示构造从城市生态隔离理论可以产生广泛的定性不同和实质上有趣的隔离模式。研究结果表明,复杂的,宏观层面的模式,居住隔离可以产生一个小的一套简单的微观层面的社会动态运行在特定的城市人口背景。代理人模拟研究的承诺和目前的局限性,并表示乐观的潜力,这样的研究从事和促进更广泛的研究文献住宅隔离。
This paper considers the potential for using agent models to explore theories of residential segregation in urban areas. Results of generative experiments conducted using an agent-based simulation of segregation dynamics document that varying a small number of model parameters representing constructs from urban-ecological theories of segregation can generate a wide range of qualitatively distinct and substantively interesting segregation patterns. The results suggest how complex, macro-level patterns of residential segregation can arise from a small set of simple micro-level social dynamics operating within particular urban-demographic contexts. The promise and current limitations of agent simulation studies are noted and optimism is expressed regarding the potential for such studies to engage and contribute to the broader research literature on residential segregation.
