Abstract:Segregation is a threat to the aspirations of producing a cohesive society and modelling its dynamics can be done in order to help design preventative measures. This work explores the question of whether the network topologies of urban spaces can affect the pace at which populations can become segregated. The simulation dynamics employed augment the canonical Schelling model in such a way that it also captures the affinity for agents to prefer denser regions which also offer sufficient local homogeneity. It is… Show more
