Citibike beating Barclays Cycle Hire
NYC Citibike’s meteoric rise continues – for October, the New York City bikeshare beat London’s Barclays Cycle Hire on average journeys per day, for both weekdays and weekends. Even more impressive considering that it’s only just over half the size. Thanks to this release published today at the London Data Store, and this daily updating […]

The New Science of Cities, by Mike Batty
In this book, I suggest that to understand cities we must view them not simply as places in space but as systems of networks and flows. To understand space, we must understand flows, and to understand flows, we must understand networks—the relations between objects that comprise the system of the city. Drawing on the complexity […]

Cities, Brains, Percolation
At ECCS ’13 this morning, Elsa Arcaute, Lecturer in Urban Modelling in CASA, is talking about our work on city size using percolation theory which has analogies to Hernan Makse’s work on percolation and the brain. Click here for the programme and the paper in the Arxiv on which is it based. You can also […]

Gravity v Radiation Models
For many years, almost from the time when Newton first presented his laws of gravitation, speculations and applications of the gravity model to human interactions have been made. In the 19th century, Carey and Ravenstein led the way with Reilly, Zipf, Stewart and Warntz and then Voorhees making major contributions in the early to mid […]

China, the world’s great agriculture consumer
The great thing about having access to the entirety of the UN’s commodity trade database is that you can ask any kind of question you wish of the data. For example, here’s a network representation of trade flows throughout the entire world in agricultural products in 2010. Bigger, more purple nodes are the ones with […]

The New Science of Cities
Readers of this blog may be interested in Michael Batty’s new book “The New Science of Cities” which has just been published by MIT Press. To quote from the publisher:
“Michael Batty suggests that to understand cities we must view them not simply as places in space but as systems of networks and flows. To understand space, he argues, we must understand flows, and to understand flows, we must understand networks—the relations between objects that comprise the system of the city. Drawing on the complexity sciences, social physics, urban economics, transportation theory, regional science, and urban geography, and building on his own previous work, Batty introduces theories and methods that reveal the deep structure of how cities function.”
There is a detailed description of the books content on Mike’s web site www.complexcity.info. The website also hosts numerous papers and books that Mike has written over his many years as a leading urban modeler in all its shapes and forms.
