Simulation modeling of transport and socioeconomic development of megapolis districts (on the example of Moscow city)

Abstract

The article substantiates the relevance of using software tools to manage the sustainable development of settlement territories. The main aspects that influence this development are established. These include, for example, socioeconomic indicators, environmental situation, and transportation accessibility. Using the methods of analysis, synthesis, systematization, quantitative and qualitative characteristics of such objects and processes that determine the content of the selected aspects are established. The obtained results are used to create formal models that demonstrate the changes in the system states necessary for agent-based modeling. Behavior of each agent, its internal states, peculiarities of the influence of the external environment or conditions on it form the overall behavior of the system. The model obtained allows for predicting changes in the system to control actions.
