Abstract

Progress in the development of optimizing land-use design models is evaluated in this paper. Eight methodological issues are raised concerning the theoretical foundations of such models and the transition from a theoretical to an applied planning tool. Five specific land-use models are evaluated in relation to these issues. A series of extensions to these models are proposed to help meet the methodological issues raised. The main conclusion reached is that the short-term, prospects for an improved design model, suitable for applied planning, are not good without more research into the areas noted.
