ABSTRACT

This book is as much a complement as it is a successor to Integrated Urban Models (Putman, 1983a). That book was an account of the development and testing of a set of mathematical models of the interrelationships between transportation, location, and land use. The research described there began in 1971. Prior to that time there had been virtually no work done towards quantifying the forwards and backwards linkages between the metropolitan patterns of employment and population location and the networks of transportation facilities which connected them.
