The Segregation Model Results

The following section presents the results from the various segregation models that have been created for this research. These have been included to highlight how the patterns of segregation evolve over time. The results and sections relate directly to what has been presented in the thesis. It is divided into two components, the first is exploring the basic segregation model which was referred to as ‘Experiments with the Basic segregation Model’ in the thesis. While the second explores variations of the basic segregation model referred to in the thesis as ‘Variations of the Basic Segregation Model’.

Basic Segregation Model:

• Multiple Model Runs
• Size of Neighbourhood
• Geographical Features
• Agents Preferences

Variations of the Segregation Model:

• Add and Remove Model
• Density Model
• No Random Searching
• Initial Area First Model
• Preferences for Both Model
• Polygon Model
  • Different Types
• Models Combined

In each case, there will be links to the models source code and data sets thus allowing for replication if desired.
