City Science team wins Best Presentation Award - SAI Computing Conference 2021
About the Computing Conference: "The goal of the conference is to be a premier venue for researchers and industry practitioners to share new ideas, research results and development experiences in various fields. It is one of the best respected conferences in the area of computer science."
From the paper abstract: This paper presents an agent-based model that characterizes citizens' behavioural patterns with respect to housing and mobility choice that will constitute the first step in the development of a dynamic incentive system for an open interactive governance process. The realistic identification and representation of the criteria that affect this decision-making process will help understand and evaluate the impacts of potential housing incentives that aim to promote urban characteristics such as equality, diversity, walkability, and efficiency.
The team includes: Mireia Yurrita, Arnaud Grignard, Luis Alonso, Ryan (Yan) Zhang, Cristian Ignacio Jara-Figueroa, Markus ElKatsha, and Kent Larson.
