CUPUM 05
This next year (2005), the Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis (CASA)
at UCL will be holding the 9th International Conference on Computers
in Urban Management and Urban Planning in the heart of central
London at University College London (UCL).
The Conference is scheduled to run from Wednesday 29th June to
Friday 1st July 2005.
Please reserve dates in your diaries. The Web Site announcing the
Call for Abstracts and Call for Papers will be put online in mid
September with a first deadline for Abstracts being end November. We
will circulate these lists when the Web Site is active. Please check the
CASA Web Site for future announcements (http://www.casa.ucl.ac.uk)
The cost of registration will be £150 for early registrants and £100 for
students. Late registration will be £175 and £125 respectively.
Abstracts are welcome within the following major themes:
NETWORKS:
the networked city, information transmission, transport networks,
transactions processing, security, surveillance, networked
information, communication and mobile technologies, data and
privacy issues, digital infrastructures, web services, spatial-social
networks
MOBILITY:
transport models at different scales and of different types: discrete
choice, behavioural, spatial interaction, micro-simulation, city-wide
models, pedestrian modelling, evacuation models, public transport,
migration, integrated transport systems
URBANISATION:
Rapid urban growth, satellite remote sensing, global models, spatial
inequalities, developing worlds, urban morphology, urban dynamics,
poverty and deprivation mapping
PLANNING SYSTEMS:
PSS, DSS, ontologies, expert systems, design methods, AI, neural
nets, cognition and design, case based reasoning, planning
processes, futurology, scenario planning, urban management
NEW MEDIA:
visualisation, virtual realities, virtual cities, web-based dissemination,
online participation, animation, computer-aided design, new GIS,
mapping, multi-media.
SPATIAL SIMULATIONS:
Agent-based models, cellular automata, land-use transportation,
spatial econometrics, microsimulation, regional economic models,
complexity models, geodemographic models.
We are also planning a few special sessions, for example on Urban
Development Models (to celebrate 40 years of work since the special
issue of the JAIP in May 1965), Tools for Urbanization in Developing
Countries, and Decision support for European Spatial Planning.
