Abstract

This paper argues for urban growth simulation models as useful tools in the planning process as
they offer a prospective simulation of future scenarios. The paper thus explores the different
models already available and their suitability for the urban growth simulations, focusing on Cellular
Automata and Agent Based Models for explorative simulations and the Multi-Criteria Evaluation
methods for normative simulations.
