Simulating city growth by using the cellular automata algorithm [PDF]
The objective of this thesis is to develop and implement a Cellular Automata (CA) algorithm to simulate urban growth process. It attempts to satisfy the need to predict the future shape of a city, the way land uses sprawl in the surroundings of that ...

Estimating National and Foreign Trade Elasticities Using Generalized Transport Costs
ABSTRACT We introduce the definition of two distinct trade elasticities corresponding to imports from regions located in the same country (national elasticities) and foreign regions located in other countries (foreign elasticities). We resort to a three‐tier nested CES utility structure to derive the corresponding demand gravity equations.

Imagining the Nation in the 21st Century
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how our imagining of the nation has evolved from the 1600s to this day. Reviewing the well‐known analysis of Benedict Anderson, this paper carries the argument further, investigating how our imagining of our national communities has changed alongside sociopolitical, economic and technological transformations.
