Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2007 People experience and memorize space primarily with the help of landmarks. These landmarks have structural salience, besides visual and semantic salience. When people move in urban space they perceive first the street network as structuring this space. Therefore, streets are a good candidate for investigating structural salience.

Are cities dissipative structures?
International Journal of Urban Sciences, 2013The new emergent paradigm of urban development theory that is based on complexity sciences allows us to understand and analyse cities in a new way. Theoretically, complexity sciences enable us to depict the fundamental characteristics of urban development, including nonlinearity, self-organization, and emergence. Empirically, the agent-based modelling (
